It gets pretty infuriating to see what they try and in some cases get away with. Googling "improper police traffic stops" and taking it from there gets real crazy.
I've been pretty lucky in the FRS so far except one case where he tried to go all in on me with everything he had and then he gave up and left. All I can say is get a dash cam and
radar detector and keep it rolling at all times when in that vehicle. Police do some heroic stuff and we should appreciate them but out on the road, they are the enemy.
WOW You managed to go on YoutTube and find some videos of shady cops? That is truly amazing. Did you look for one of good cops? Do people that have good experiences post their videos? None of those bad ones could have been twisted to reflect things differently than they actually occurred? Do you only believe the ones that support your stand and reject the rest?
There are far far more bad divers than bad cops out here.
