He looked it! I watched the video last night, the driver is not somebody I’d want to tangle with.

okay. the passenger is a seasoned 4-day veteran.

I think in this case he kicked ass as well!! he did better than I would have.

Thoroughly impressive. At the end it almost seemed like the truck was stuck or something. It sounded like he either couldn't get it into gear or when he did, nothing happened but the engine revving.

Also, those guys firing had good aim, unless of course they were going for the tires.

HAHA! Yup, but if I ever need BP windows I want the ones they have.

Ah ha. Another Toyota victory.

Hope he was carrying the extra glass insurance....

ROFLMAO! Thanks, I may steal that "seasoned <short time> veteran"

He's sure as hell seasoned now, assuming he went back for day 5.

More video.......

I commend the driver for walking around day to day that with much brass hanging between his legs.

I really wish there'd been more of the dashcam vid.

So he cut them off by moving into the right lane. Made them flee and clipped the white bakkie while it was stopped. Then clipped the bakkie as it passed him. Impressive driving.

Certainly impressive driving! I'm just glad it worked out OK.

The GPS coordinates in case anyone is interested. 25°26'24.0"S - 28°09'00.0"E

That's interesting. On the other side of Pretoria.

No politics intended but note the rifle they're using.

AR15, 30 round mag and a good scope. ;)

shouldn’t the vehicle be equipped with an emergency button that calls in location etc instead of having to deal with a cell phone while being shot at? makes no sense

Probably not a bad idea. It should probably also be equipped with flame throwers that shoot out from under each side. I understand that was perfectly legal in S Africa many years ago when carjacking was a big thing. When the guy shot past the left side of the stopped white truck and made all of the dudes from the truck scramble, that would have been a great time to deploy the flame thrower. As Richard Pryor said, "fire is inspirational."

My favourite is when the driver does a quick shoulder check before switching lanes to drive between the stopped cars.

The dash cam is even better, he tries to take them out which is awesome.

Right, it probably takes them a lot longer to get back in their car after running from him. You're probably also a lot less likely to shoot at a car if you're busy dodging it.

I really wish we'd gotten the whole dashcam.
