Becoming a pilot in India

For aspiring pilots … in INDIA (report spl. By the pilot himself)

Lately, I’ve been inundated with phone calls, emails, and scrapbook messages from people in various walks of life – the standard 12th step for engineers, business graduates, and even certified accountants, asking anxiously and enthusiastically. on pilot training. The type of inquiries made and the expectations that most of these people have has made me realize that perhaps the boom in aviation in India has been exaggerated to such an extent that it has created some false impressions and hopes. In light of this, I would like to clarify the following things on how to become a commercial pilot:

1. The first and foremost thing I want to emphasize is that being a commercial driver is NOT, I repeat, NOT an easy escape from the difficulty of other races! It is as difficult, demanding and demanding as being an engineer or a doctor, with an added negative: EXTREMELY HIGH STRESS LEVELS. Being an airline first officer or commander is not at all about sitting in an air-conditioned automated plane, touring multiple cities every day, staying in fancy hotels, and getting paid for it. Get real guys! There is not a single dream job like that in the world. If it existed, I’m sure everyone would be doing just that by now. The things mentioned above are perks that come with your actual work, and they are not the work itself! The stress and rigorous effort required to train to fly even a small propeller plane is enormous! Taking responsibility for an aircraft at the airline level, as well as operating it in accordance with all the standards and norms imposed by the DGCA and the company, requires a skill equivalent to a good engineer, the vigilance of a manager, the precision of a good meteorologist, solid knowledge of regulations, PLUS constant presence of mind and self-innovation to tackle everyday situations, each of which will be unique.

2. Training to become a pilot is one of the hardest things in the world. I’m not kidding! It is only the amount of BOOKISH EFFORT that is less in flight training, although of course there is a lot of that too. Becoming a pilot is not as easy as simply enrolling in an institute and recording your hours. There are at least 10 procedures involved in this, viz. Police Verification, Board Verification, Computer Number Request, Theoretical Exam Request, SPL, FRTOL, Theoretical Training, Medical Class 2, Medical Class 1, COP (RTR), Flight Training, License and Rating Applications. You will have to sweat and run a lot for each of these procedures, and each of them will take a minimum of 3 months to complete.

3. Becoming a pilot means obtaining and having at least 6 CURRENT documents viz. SPL, FRTOL, Class 1 Medical assessment, pass the 5 compulsory theoretical exams (which by the way are quite difficult to pass), COP (RTR) and flight training diary carried out according to the syllabus. EACH of these have a separate validity period, from 6 months to 2-1 / 2 years, and if you cannot complete your training within that time, that particular license will expire and will have to be renewed. This will mean higher costs and more running, so there is tension to finish training very quickly, which is not practically possible. After becoming a pilot, your instrument rating and night rating will need to be renewed every six months, the COP (RTR) will need to be renewed every 3 years, and the Class 1 medical class will need to be renewed every year until age 40. The latter is especially dangerous, you could be medically punished at any time, and depending on the duration, it can ruin your flight training and even ruin your career for life.

6/24/06 4. Here’s an important point: THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A 100% WORK OR PLACEMENT GUARANTEE! Any institute that proclaims this is trying to lure you in with false promises. Hello there?? Guys, wake up! Is there a guarantee of employment in any career? Even if you are a student at an IIM or IIT, do you have a guaranteed job? What a ridiculous thought! If so, then all you would have to do is get into high school and sleep for the rest of your days. Hey, guaranteed job, right? Even wishing something like this seriously is proof that you want something for nothing: a free life! Get that thought out of your head, otherwise you will screw it up! Aside from moral preaching, there is no job guarantee for pilots, in fact, landing a pilot job is MUCH MORE DIFFICULT than landing a job as an engineer, MBA, or call center officer. Since the industry is not as well organized as the hard-core ones, it is difficult to say when the vacancies will appear in which company or how many there will be. When vacancies appear, you will have to compete alongside many experienced pilots, such as flight instructors or charter pilots, for the same position. The entry process for most airlines involves a written test, psychometry, interview, simulator check / instrument check, and company medical review – 5 levels to pass! Most companies charge you for each of these layers.

5. Contrary to popular opinion, flying professionally is difficult, as I have already mentioned. There are too many professional and human limitations to follow at work. Your family and social life will have to sacrifice a lot at least in the first years. You will have to undergo skill tests and proficiency checks at least every 6 months in an airline, and believe me, you need to be vigilant if you don’t want to be punished or fired …

… It is not similar to driving a car where the skill remains; it implies constant improvement in both practice and theory; Well I’m sure a look at the theory required just for the basic CPL exams will scare quite a few people.

6. There are many headaches and frustrations in flying, from financial problems to political competition, lack of flight instructors and medical grounding. The whole process to become a pilot will involve a minimum investment of Rs. 13-14 lakhs, and this does not include Multi-Engine Qualification or Instructor Qualification or any post-job airline training costs, which can be Rs. 10-25 additional. lakhs. You may have passed all of your theoretical papers and are the first in line for training and the most interested best flyer and yet you may fall victim to favoritism, nepotism, and influence. There is nothing that can be done about it. If your flight instructor suddenly leaves your job for someone else, leaving you stranded, there isn’t much you can do about it either.

My motive is not to dissuade people from aspiring to become pilots, but to try to segregate the hardliners and the hopefuls. If you are bored or tired of your current career and want a refreshing change, FLYING IS NOT FOR YOU. If you’re bad at school or don’t want to fight much in life, FLYING IS NOT FOR YOU. If you want a stable, safe and risk-free career option, FLYING IS NOT FOR YOU. If you are looking for alternative and unconventional career options, FLYING IS NOT FOR YOU. If “you want to be a pilot because it’s cool”, FLYING IS NOT FOR YOU (you can try Microsoft Flight Simulator).

To even think about becoming a pilot, you must be passionate about it and willing to risk a lot in life, financially and otherwise. You must be prepared to face insurmountable obstacles and gut-wrenching pain in your endeavor. You must be prepared to suffer terrible injustices in your search. You must be willing to fight like a madman, with no destination in sight, trudging forward only fueled by the hope that you will make it through one day. You must be prepared to live badly and badly maybe even your whole life. Yes, what I’m saying is that flying must be the main love of your life if you want to pursue a career in it, just like music was the main love of Beethoven’s life.

I hope this article has been helpful to many of you who dream of being a pilot. If you have fully understood the challenges involved and still want to start the adventure, I will be happy to help you. Greetings and fly high.

On-site photo production in Zanzibar

Palm trees, white beaches, turquoise water, picturesque streets, and a temperate tropical climate, Zanzibar is a stunning destination for photographic productions of all kinds. It is the perfect place for swimwear and lingerie sessions and also adapts to any production that needs a summery island flair.

So how easy is it to organize a film or still image production in Zanzibar?

Trip
There are very few direct long-haul flights to Zanzibar, but several airlines fly direct from Europe to Dar-es-Salaam on mainland Tanzania with a short connecting flight to Zanzibar. It is a journey of approximately 10 to 15 hours that includes a stopover from the main European cities. It is better to obtain a visa in advance; They are available on arrival but can be a time consuming process.

Local transportation
Local roads are not in excellent condition, so you should allow enough time to travel between locations on the island. The rental of minivans and 4×4 vehicles with or without a driver is not a problem.

accommodation
There are some really great hotels in Zanzibar, as it caters to those who add a luxury island getaway to a mainland safari vacation. There are also many hotels and resorts that cater to more moderate budgets.

Permissions
Filming permits are easy to obtain with the help of a production company that has established local connections, usually only taking about three days. If you are also filming in mainland Tanzania, you will need a separate permit.

Team
There is very little when it comes to professional equipment rental in Zanzibar, so it will be necessary to bring it with the crew. However, there is no problem to clear customs as long as a detailed equipment list with serial numbers is presented along with the film’s permit prior to arrival. Your production company will take care of all those details for you.

Crew
It will be necessary to bring in qualified personnel, but there is a lot of hard work if less experienced help is hired locally.

Rentals
The places are varied and unspoiled: long white sand beaches, palm trees, picturesque dhows, forests, winding streets of Stonetown with interesting carved doors, balconies and architectural details, and also fascinating interiors. For a dash of grandeur and history, the Sultan’s Palace is available to rent.

When to go
The best time to visit Zanzibar is between June and October and then again between December and March; these are the driest times with uniform temperatures and lots of sun.

Currently, Zanzibar is more popular for photo productions than movies, but there is no reason not to go there for film productions as well. There is growing interest in film with an annual international film festival turning 16 and local production companies are actively working to open up the island archipelago to more film productions.

SWOT analysis of the new Honda Fuel Cell vehicle

Honda is changing the vehicle market as we know it, by building a vehicle that emits water vapor. Honda’s FCX Clarity fuel cell car is the new generation of green cars. This car has some similarities to the hybrid, but nothing compares to its new hydrogen fuel source. In addition to hydrogen, it works with an electric motor that generates electricity for the fuel cell and a lithium-ion battery. The lithium-ion battery serves as a supplemental power source. The lithium-ion battery charges while braking and decelerating. Some questions may arise when thinking about this new fuel cell vehicle, such as what makes this car better than the other hybrid cars? What are the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of the Honda FCX Clarity?

One of the greatest strengths of this new fuel cell vehicle is that it emits water vapor and is designated a zero emission vehicle (ZEV). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has given this vehicle the lowest possible emissions rating. You can also drive up to 280 miles before refueling with hydrogen. FCX Clarity achieves an energy efficiency of 55%, which is twice the energy efficiency of hybrid vehicles and three times the energy efficiency of normal gasoline vehicles. Because the FCX Clarity is more energy efficient, it was one of the first fuel cell vehicles to receive certification from the EPA and the California Air Resources Board. Unlike hybrids, the FCX Clarity doesn’t need to be plugged in to charge and there’s no need for regular gas.

Honda has many opportunities with this new fuel cell vehicle. First, Honda is designing a home service station. No more worrying about going out and refueling at the pump. Home refueling stations will put stress on the pump. In addition, Honda could make this fuel cell vehicle a household name and market this vehicle worldwide. Honda just needs to get out to show off their new vehicle. Honda is starting to market the new fuel cell a bit. Honda just launched the FCX Clarity for Japan.

One of the few weaknesses of this fuel cell vehicle is its limited availability in the United States. Southern California and Japan are the only two areas where this new vehicle is available. Honda plans to launch around 200 vehicles in 3 years in California and Japan. Honda believes that this new fuel cell vehicle will be able to be mass produced in 2018. I think this is one of Honda’s biggest drawbacks: the limited launch and few service stations.

This car is a bit small and can only carry four people. The cost of the FCX Clarity is approximately 600 per month with a 3-year lease. It seems a bit expensive for someone of the middle class to pay that payment. No one in California will be able to lease this new vehicle. These people who are selected live near gas stations and make a limited amount of travel.

Basically, Toyota and GM vehicles are Honda’s biggest threat. With so many new hybrids and small cars that save gas, this creates a problem for Honda. Another threat is Chevrolet. Chevrolet has developed a fuel cell SUV “the Equinox” and has already reached New York City, Washington DC and Southern California. That said, it becomes a race between Honda and Chevrolet with the new fuel cell technology. How would the popularity of the new FCX Clarity fuel cell increase? Lack of mass production and service stations, Honda will have no chance.

I think Honda has created a good prototype with its new fuel source. The new fuel source should be further investigated before placing this vehicle on the market. This car is for people who are willing to go green and have the money to do it. The whole problem is making this car available to the public and easily accessible.

On the other hand, Honda has a comparative advantage due to its home service station. There is no other vehicle that you can plug in and refuel at home. Hybrid vehicles rely on battery and gas to run. You have to plug in the hybrid to recharge the battery.

How to buy the right travel trailer

Travel trailers are also known as RVs or motorhomes. They are very popular thanks to the comfort they provide while traveling. The fact is, you can enjoy a normal life at home in a caravan and keep traveling to your preferred destinations. They come equipped with everything that makes a home comfortable and convenient. But with so many types on the market today, there are things to consider before buying just one to get the best for your needs.

View weight balance

A travel trailer will generally come with a truck, so it is important to confirm that they match well for the safety of the trailer. Closing the maximum weight or overloading the truck will give you a very bad towing experience and can also be dangerous. Don’t trust the seller to know everything about the weight and instead check with a trusted mechanic or the truck manufacturer.

Try the travel trailer

Testing means doing the things you hope to do while living in the travel trailer. You can wash the dishes, prepare a meal, or even take a shower. Such simple tests can go a long way in alerting you to little surprises that you would rather avoid. Try some of your favorite travel trailers before making up your mind. Actually, it is better to know what to expect before you buy than to be caught off guard after you have purchased the vehicle.

Buy your travel trailer from a reputable dealer

Remember that these vehicles can be complex and you want to be safe even with new ones. A good dealer must answer all questions honestly to help you make the right choice and you also know that you will get a good quality travel trailer when you buy from reputable reputable dealers. A good dealer might even have some kind of relationship with the manufacturer, so you will get all the details that interest you before making the purchase. Learn as much as possible about the dealer before you buy.

Compare prices

Research is very important when buying anything compared to settling for the first item you find. Taking a considerable amount of time to do your research can really help you get a good quality vehicle at an affordable price. There are so many sources on the Internet that you can use to find the ideal one at a price that is reasonable enough for you. You can also try to negotiate the price; could get a better deal.

Rent one first

One of the best ways to get familiar with a travel trailer is to rent one first. You can find camping rental units to familiarize yourself with the world of trailer travel. Through the experience you gain, you will have a small but useful insight into the things that matter to you, what you liked and what you didn’t like; therefore, it will be easier for you to know what to look for when you finally shop.

Gas saving devices

Gas saving scams

There have been hundreds of unique ways and products to help us save on fuel, here are some of the latest gas saving devices. Most of the devices tested have no benefits, but read and see which ones over the years can really help you save on gas.

1. Aftermarket Refit Device, 1999: This gas saving device makes the fuel burn completely, as the fuel passes through the stabilizer, the molecules line up to burn in the combustion chamber. The device is supposed to save gas and help MPG. Tests were conducted and the results said there were no positive or negative effects on exhaust emissions or fuel economy.

2. PetroMoly HP Motor Oil, 1999: This high performance oil is a replacement for motor oil that increases fuel economy by 10% and reduces toxic emissions by 60%, it is an emission reduction device. The EPA and independent labs tested this product and found that it did improve, but it was so small that it was of no importance in improving MPG.

3. Vitalizer III, 1999: This fuel saving device is a copper tube consisting of various metals, which is placed in the fuel line. This causes a disruption in the fuel flow pattern, presumably forming an electrostatic colloidal matrix. The EPA tested this product and found that the increase in fuel economy was less than 1.0% in all six observations, which did not make a significant difference in fuel economy or exhaust emissions and was considered a scam.

4. Super FUELMAX, 2005: This interesting and unique device is a set of two magnets made of a mixture of neodymium and can be installed in cars, trucks or boats. It is placed around the fuel supply line to the engine and is said to increase fuel consumption by up to 27%. However, it was tested by the EPA and found to have no effect on fuel economy or exhaust emissions performance.

5. DreamTech, 2006: Fuel savings for cars and trucks are said to improve fuel efficiency, generate power, and reduce emissions by 26.1%. This device cleans the engine and increases engine performance. Helps burn more of the exhaust that is considered unburned pollution. The device must be installed and EPA testing showed no significant change in MPG.

6. Fuel Doctor FD-47, 2011 – This fuel efficiency booster device is designed to improve your car’s MPG by simply plugging it into the cigarette lighter socket. It works by conditioning the flow of energy throughout the car’s electrical system. The impact can vary, depending on the car and its condition. Tests by renowned automotive and engineering authorities such as Intertek, Ledico-Bosch and Kett Engineering showed that the device works and can increase its MPG by 15-20%.

Clear and Present Danger: Running Outdoors with Headphones

(Not the movie starring Harrison Ford as CIA agent Jack Ryan)

Safety

Headphones 2 Running with headphones reduces awareness of your physical surroundings. If you’re running on a tape, click on the playlist. When you are outdoors, being less than fully aware of your physical surroundings compromises your personal safety. Like it or not, all runners (especially women) must run defensively at times. Headphone users range from being inattentive to totally oblivious to other people, cars, and dogs, all of which are potential attackers posing a real threat to a runner’s physical safety.

Last month, Runners World posted a story online about a teenager wearing hearing aids who was hit by a car and seriously injured. He was running a night 10K and took a wrong turn, veering off course and onto an open road. He didn’t hear the runner behind him yell a warning.

A little closer to home: Last year my teenage daughter and I discussed wearing headphones while running. He insisted that he could hear what was going on around him, with or without headphones. I waited until he ran out of the house. I put on my running shoes and went after her. I ran after her. She was absorbed in her music, unaware of my sudden presence. I tapped her on the shoulder, startling her. She’s lucky; Dad is a safe boy.

What is my body telling me?

When you are in tune with the melodies, you are not in tune with your body. When we run, our bodies provide us with valuable feedback. We learn what a certain rhythm feels like, how our breathing, heart rate, and muscles respond, especially when accelerated. We continually integrate this data, making appropriate physical and mental adjustments in response as we run. When we run and receive the same signals that we experience during training, we can remain calm and in control because we know that we have previously experienced the discomfort caused by running faster and have managed it. Headphone users can easily miss the subtle cues from their body and the race day lessons that stem from them. It is difficult to listen to music and your body at the same time.

Am I missing a beautiful experience?

Last May, my wife and I volunteered as quarterbacks in the Toronto Women’s Half Marathon. The off-road circuit traversed a section of Toronto’s scenic park system. An old woman passed me. He stopped and slyly observed: “Those women (referring to some of the race participants who wear headphones) run through the beautiful nature but do not enjoy the song of the birds or the smell of the flowers.” Yes, he was right on his first point … and probably also on his second point.

“I run for the feel of the textures of the earth under my feet. I know of no time when I am more fully alive or intimately at one with the physical world.” Roger Robinson, columnist and author.

The sounds and scents of running outdoors in a natural environment, one of the great joys of running, do not compete with iPods.

Hopefully some readers will think twice about reaching for their headphones when they head out for their next run.

Oil, Energy and Congress

Now that Congress has gone into recess for the end of the summer, what are we going to do about the energy situation? At this point, I’m getting tired of hearing that $ 4.00 gas is good for me. How can it be good when Americans spend less of their money on other goods and invest in their gas tanks? Is it good that transportation costs have skyrocketed my food bill? Is it good that many Americans have shortened their vacations and reduced their entertainment expenses? Is it a good thing that working poor are struggling between putting groceries in their homes and fueling their cars to get to work?

Apparently our congressional leaders and a presidential candidate say the answer is yes. While our Speaker of the House is trying to “save the planet”, the rest of the world is trying to find more oil and energy. Let’s look at some recent examples:

  • Egypt announced last week the start of a $ 9 billion oil refinery and petrochemical complex, which will be located on its north coast. The complex is expected to begin operations in 2010 and will be completed in 5 years. The facility will refine 350,000 barrels of oil per day.
  • The Tupi deepwater oil field is located off the coast of Rio de Janeiro, one of the best tourist destinations in Brazil. Last November, the Brazilian government announced that the location could contain between five and eight billion barrels of oil. The Tupi oil field is expected to start producing 100,000 barrels of oil in 2010, according to Petrobas, Brazil’s national oil company. Petrobas expects to bring production to one million barrels a day in about ten years.
  • Finland is building a 1600 megawatt nuclear reactor. Currently, the country obtains 28 percent of its electricity from nuclear power.
  • Japan is working to increase its nuclear power production from 30 percent to 37 percent for 2009 and 41 percent for 2017.

Now, in addition to threatening to sue the Saudis and add more oil taxes, what has the US government’s energy policy done? Let’s see some examples:

  • From 2000 to 2007, national crude oil production fell 12.4 percent.
  • Through a congressional mandate, 85 percent of the outer continental shelf is off-limits to oil exploration. The outer continental shelf is estimated to contain 90 billion barrels of oil
  • The Artic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) is estimated to have 10 billion barrels of oil; In 1995, President Clinton vetoed a bill authorizing oil production on 2,000 acres out of a total of 19.6 million.
  • US Senator Ken Salazar, Colorado, inserted language into the overhead bill last December that establishes a moratorium on promulgating rules for oil shale development on federal lands. The Green River Formation is estimated to have up to 1.1 trillion barrels of oil shale.
  • As mandated by the 2007 energy bill signed by President Bush, the United States is now required to mix 9 billion gallons of biofuels into its gasoline supply. The mandate is primarily with corn-based ethanol. At the beginning of the biofuel mandates, corn cost $ 2 per bushel. The price of corn is now just over $ 6 per bushel.

It seems that the more our government gets involved, the worse the situation becomes. And where did the common sense go? If I see that you need water, I would not send you to a desert to get it. Yet that is what we do with our oil exploration. Try to find it where we don’t know if it exists.

From 2000 to 2007, US oil companies increased exploration well drilling by 138 percent (on those 68 million acres of existing leases); Oil production still fell to its lowest level since 1947. The American Petroleum Institute reported that oil companies had the most oil well activity in the second quarter since 1986.

The United States has successfully developed other forms of energy; clean coal plants, nuclear power, natural gas plants, solar and wind power. Our most efficient and cheapest forms of energy production are under constant attack from the environmental movement. The United States uses 760 gigawatts of power plants to meet today’s needs. The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) estimates that we will need 135 gigawatts of new capacity in the next 10 years. So far, only 57 gigawatts of power plants are planned. Why?

  • 59 coal plants were canceled in 2007 due to the anti-coal activist.
  • US natural gas production is beginning to decline due to environmental restrictions on exploration.
  • The National Resources Defense Council (NRDC) managed to stop 13 natural gas power plants in Southern California.

We have the best scientists, engineers and technicians in the world. Give them a chance to solve this challenge and they will. There are many private companies working on new technologies to bring them to market. If our government is going to pick winners and losers through subsidies, many companies will not enter the market.

For example, NuScale Power, an Oregon-based start-up, is seeking federal authorization to begin its project to build a mini nuclear reactor. The reactor can power 45,000 homes, is 65 feet long, and has no visible cooling tower. NuScale claims that these reactors are maintenance-free and require no refueling. At the end of its useful life of about 30 years, the plant is returned to the factory.

This type of technology should be well received and encouraged by all. With a small footprint and no carbon emissions, these plants could replace many traditional coal and gas power plants.

This situation does not require a billion dollar bailout from our government. Nor does it require raising taxes on oil companies. Remember, we tested the windfall tax with President Jimmy Carter. That led to a 6 percent drop in oil production and a 15 percent increase in oil imports, according to the Congressional Research Service.

If Congress steps back and allows everybody For energy companies to explore and develop energy responsibly, we would not have to struggle with high energy costs. Put off everybody of subsidies and let the market decide which means of energy is cheaper, environmentally friendly and durable. American technology is more than capable of producing efficient energy and protecting the environment.

Instead of trying to spend more of my tax dollars, why doesn’t Congress spend more of their time, for which we pay them, to fix the regulatory landscape for energy production? Congress needs to enact some common sense environmental regulations. If they do, the market will provide us with a diverse supply of energy that is reliable, American-made, and affordable.

It’s time to streamline and simplify this process, now.

How can I make sure my 4WD lift is legal?

In all parts of the world, there are restrictions on what you are allowed to do when modifying a four-wheel drive. Sure, you can go out and buy the biggest lift kit you can find. In fact, you can put the kit on and drive with it. However, it is very likely that at some point a police officer will stop and inspect you. The correct way to modify your four wheel drive is to find out what the legal limitations are before buying anything!

In Western Australia, if you lift your vehicle more than 50mm (this includes tires, body lift or suspension lift), the car must undergo a lane change test. This is a test to see how your vehicle behaves when swerving at high speeds. If the vehicle fails, you will not be able to certify it as roadworthy. While some of these rules seem over the top, they have been put in place to protect road users.

There are many different ways to lift a vehicle, varying in price and quality. A body lift, for example, will simply lift the vehicle body off the chassis. You will end up with more room to run larger tires, but it can cause other problems. For example, if you have a bumper or a rear bar, it will stay in the same place and the body will go up, leaving a space between the two. Other issues can be radiator hoses and gearbox levers, as well as the need to lengthen cables and other hoses under your vehicle.

The most common way to lift a four wheel drive is to install a suspension lift. This means installing larger springs and shock absorbers, raising both the body and the chassis. This is not as ideal for installing larger tires, but it is probably the most common method of lifting your car.

Regardless of how you do it, make sure your vehicle meets the criteria that the law specifies for your area. This will often vary from state to state; Check it out! If your vehicle is not legal and you have an accident, your insurance company can easily get away from it all and let you pay the bill. If you injure someone or damage an expensive vehicle, you may be in debt for the rest of your life!

Why should I emphasize the use of a Full HD dash cam?

Are you the one with a great love for driving? Have you ever come across a situation where a car driver hit the car in front of him and fled the scene? With the constant increase in the number of vehicles on the road, accidents are likely to occur due to the demonstration of negligent attitude on the part of the car driver. It has been noticed a lot of times that if someone encounters an accident caused by someone else’s hasty driving, the main culprit will put all the blame on the one whose car was hit by the actual person who was at fault.

You can even try to get money out of you by claiming it was someone else’s fault as you suddenly applied the brakes and that your car literally hit the car of the innocent-looking person in this scenario. This can happen to anyone on the road and even to you. To capture the real moments of accidents that take place with a stranger driving on the same road as you, it would be a wise decision to install a dash cam on your car’s windshield.

Let’s take an example, shall we?
