CCTV: the Undiscriminating Watchman!

CCTV exists to deter bad people from doing bad things – and when they can’t be deterred to provide evidence of their crimes.

However, CCTV cameras can’t ‘turn a blind eye’, they capture everything they see – even when sometimes it serves only to embarrass the perpetrator!

Such was the case for this poor guy.  It seems that all he wanted to do was park his car, and then let a few helpful people unload the TV from his boot.  But in a series of mistakes he’s filmed first crashing his car backwards into the unloading bay, then standing helplessly as the TV (we hope it’s not a valuable one!) tumbles from the boot and smashes on the floor.  Finally, he’s forced to run after his car as it begins to roll away – presumably in his hurry to check for damage after crashing he neglected to activate the handbrake.

All very amusing, and hopefully the damage inflicted is only minor. But it’s evidence that CCTV never sleeps.  Better than any human patrol (although there’s a place for them, too) CCTV can keep watch over your buildings, property, plant, and even your home and family 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

Visible CCTV cameras act as a strong deterrent to criminals – particularly as, with modern advances in technology, it’s no longer simply a case of grabbing the footage from the VHS recorder to destroy the evidence.

And should the worst ever happen, a high-quality CCTV system will provide evidence that can be used to identify and convict the guilty parties.
