I taught performance driving at local race tracks for years. One drill was "Controlled Oversteer", where the driver must have the rear end hung out while going 360 degrees around a traffic cone. The car would point to cone as the car did a 360, circling the cone. Too much rear wheel spin, the car would come around. (spin out). Too little, and the back end would fall in line, and the driver would hit the cone.I'd give him about a 4
Actually, I never got a clean image of the rear license plate. It appeared to have some type of clear cover. Even when the rear plate was pointed directly at both my LPR cameras it was not 100% clear. So I ended up using a frame from each LPR camera of the front plate and merging them together at the end of the video. You can see part of the pop up headlight in each image. I noticed the roll bar too. The driver appeared to be wearing a baseball type cap.Looks like a Miata?
Convertible.
The guy installed a roll cage at least.

It's trickier than it might seem.
Yeah, I'd give this a guy for technique. Maybe a 7 for safety (roll cage). I couldn't see if he (or she) had a 4 or 5 point harness, or was wearing a helmet.
Lulu, at least the recently dropped road debris wasn't in the road anymore! And the front plate matched the rear plate!

Out of curiosity, does every time someone turns that corner at night, do the headlights cause an alert? Or do you want to have your cameras make an alert every time a car comes by?This happened last night just before midnight.
I don't use alerts. I usually keep an eye on the cameras by using an iPad Pro 12.9 and the Blue Iris mobile app.Out of curiosity, does every time someone turns that corner at night, do the headlights cause an alert? Or do you want to have your cameras make an alert every time a car comes by?
I just recently put up an outside camera for the first time and am slowly learning about zones and zone crossing . I’ve been able to set my zones so that I get far less headlight alarms but there are still a dozen or so alerts that get set off. I’m hesitant to reduce the zone crossing too much more because I would hate to miss a person creeping in my yard.
