Nextbase Ambassador and Supercar driver David Reynolds is looking forward to seeing Australians hit the road throughout 2023 to see the country but with increased traffic on the road to visit these iconic road trip destinations, urges safety, patience and the correct tools in place to protect your friends, family and other road users.
“We all love hitting the road with family or mates, stopping in at a local bakery on the way, there is no better way to see the country. The Great Ocean Road has amazing scenery along the coast line and into the Otway’s rainforest. It’s a must drive for every Australian.
“Whenever you hit the road for a trip, safety needs to stay top of mind. Having a Nextbase Dash Cam will capture what you see on the road, and in case of an accident, the Emergency SOS feature will contact emergency services for you. It’s a must for me when I’m travelling with my family – especially along those long and windy roads along the Great Ocean Road.
Plenty of cars are parked at the side of the road to capture a view of those breathtaking views, so be careful when passing or rejoining the road.” David Reynolds said.
As part of the competition, five lucky voters have won a Nextbase Dash Cams’ Road Trip prize pack, featuring a Nextbase 622GW prize pack, $500 fuel voucher, and a $500 Airbnb voucher.
Congratulations to Fiona Osborne (Lysterfield, VIC), Peter Clements (Parkesbourne, NSW), Greg Heinl (Chevallum, QLD), Anne-Marie Fensom (Illawong, NSW) and Fred Goodwin.
Sadly Victoria is witnessing a tragic start to the year with too many lives already lost in 2023, road safety must remain paramount. With international arrivals to Australia jumping up to over two million in 2022, Australia’s beautiful tourism sights and destinations will be busy and popular destinations. Having a Dash Cam in your car can help protect you with 26 percent of Aussie drivers admitting that they change their driving behaviour if they believe that they are being recorded behind the wheel, with 1 in 4 Australian motorists using a Dash Cam.
Nextbase’s Head of Territory for Australia & New Zealand, Ben Sinica said: “It’s really heartwarming to see the dedication we have to our beautiful roads across the country. No matter where you drive for your next holiday, it’s always a good idea to cover yourself if the worst case scenario becomes reality. Nextbase Dash Cams not only record footage that you can use as part of an insurance claim or criminal investigation, but they also have our world-first Emergency SOS feature which alerts authorities to your location if you have a serious accident. Where you save money on flights, invest in your safety on the road with a Dash Cam and get that peace of mind for you and your loved ones for your next road trip.”
