‘Alexa, I’m getting pulled over’: Amazon dashcam to record traffic stops

Amazon’s new security camera for cars unveiled Thursday will allow motorists concerned about a police stop to record the incident by saying, “Alexa, I’m getting pulled over.”

The new $200 Ring Car Cam will automatically start recording on the voice command, store footage securely and notify a family member of the traffic stop.

The device by Ring, Amazon’s home security unit, also includes sensors to monitor for bumps and attempted break-ins and will call for help in the event of a crash.

Unveiled at an Amazon product event, the device comes as the US tech giant faces criticism for sharing surveillance footage from home cameras with law enforcement.
