    Two things. 1. RPG is good but prefer a mini-gun on a popup turret and laser tracking. 2. Dash cams can be overcome by an IR LED array rear deck or trunk mounted...all they will record is white snow. I've seen them built into license frames for street cams.

    I have found by re positioning my power outside mirrors I can reflect their lights right back at them.

    Any of the newer cars that have either mechanical or electrically adjustable outside mirrors, you can fiddle with them to bounce the high beamers lights right back at him. The minute the high beams go down, you know you've found the "sweet spot".


    edit... did not notice "you cars" post until I posted mine... I apologize...

Problem was that at speed , the wind caught the boot somewhat so the cable had to adjusted for partial opening. then I didn't want to stop to close the boot for obvious reasons so had to fit another cable to close it. It could only be used for seconds as the draw on the battery was extreme even with the regulator fitted.

    Seldom used (only on the most arrogrant full beamers) but IT GOT RESULTS.Never caught by the law.Almost flashed the Police once and slowed so much & almost stopped my vehicle pumping the break lights, but hesitated, then saw their side light while they were distracted probably looking for an address. LOL.
