If the law is on your side, yes. Has no one seen the Lackluster channel?

I'm amazed at the just bend over and take it, that's what you get crowd. No push back to runaway authority?

At what point did you pull up the phone to film him? You said he zoomed by. Wouldn't you have it up to film after he passed you? Do you think he can look back through the rear view and see that? Why would he think you were filming rather than watching porn speeding down the interstate?

What was your plan with the video had he not given you a ticket? What are you gonna do with the video now that you have a ticket?

Seems like you were looking for a reason to complain about the police and he gave you a reason to complain.

You definitely brought attention to yourself.

May not have agreed with it but you learned something. Stay in your lane and you won’t have to go through the BS

when the trooper accelerated past me. I increased rate of speed briefly to guage the speed before slowing back down.

Yes. I was holding the phone above the steering wheel

You’re not bending over and taking it. You asked for it and getting what you deserve. There was no mistake here.

it was a just in case video. You never know with the number of crooked cops on the road when you need video evidence. Crazy it played out like it did.

Trooper was speeding recklessly without the lights on. Rules for thee but not for me?

So you have video showing the cop speeding. Do you have video showing you weren't following too close?

no ticket was issued for cell phone use, only following too close.


In this thread you confessed to doing much worse to document that the cop was speeding. And intended to fight your ticket by indicting yourself to the court for that worse crime.

If you have plenty of money to spend and you are one of those "am I being detained?" guys (God bless them) then more power to you.

It's like saying "I couldn't have robbed that bank, I was over here raping this lady in the alley".

Pay your ticket and learn your lesson. Trying to show up cops even when they are in wrong is a stupid idea if you dont want a ticket and tons of trouble. By all means, show your video to the judge, he will tell you police can speed when they need to and make you pay your ticket.

Please tell me you weren’t following the trooper closely and filming to get his car tag number on the recording….

Yes.

Still waiting for explanation of how the actual ticket was justified when in left lane, passing a vehicle, traveling a safe and prudent distance behind the vehicle.

Lot of, Ya fuxked wit the law and you deserve it duurrr hurr guys but no real intellectual answers yet

Unless it's something outrageous, I have no interest in trying to hold law enforcement "accountable."

Wtf do I care if a cop roars by doing 90 with no lights? And what exactly were you going to do with that video?

But whatever, you can do what you want obviously, though I see no reason to senselessly antagonize LEOs.

My goal is to quickly and safely get from A to B and avoid unnecessary hassle.
