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.

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

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 https://www.google.com/maps/place/25°26'24.0"S+28°09'00.0"E/@-25.44,28.147806,756m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x0!8m2!3d-25.44!4d28.15

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

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