Title: South African Flame Thrower Deterrent
Post by: 2 of the left on June 21, 2012, 22:17
After finding my 2's bonnet scored and dinged by what looks like an attack by some "herbert" with a brick I think I'll invest in one of those proximity deterrent devices from SA  s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:    s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:

On first sight, that looks cool...

But on reflection, if you were doing the carjacking, and these flames came out, isn't a reflex action to pull the trigger...?!  s:? :? s:?  

Also, i bet the clued-up carjackers in SA now wear flame-proof combats.....!    s:wink: :wink: s:wink:



Cleverer option would be to fit bullet-proof windows, surely..........  s:roll: :roll: s:roll:

I would have the system set to autonomous for when the car is parked then when the vehicle is attacked by a scrote with a brick it would operate - Should the said scrote attempt a gun attack whilst I'm in the motor I'd just floor the metal - hopefully taking him with the 2!!  s:wink: :wink: s:wink:
