A little background on my cage. It's 2006 Subaru WRX with some mods (pushing 352whp/360wtq on Dynojet). Been racing it at the track for the past 4 years, road course and some drag. Last fall I got myself a dash cam and it's been really cool as I got some footages over months of some f**kery on roads. So I was in my cage the other night coming back from a date. Driving normally, not breaking any laws. I see a cop in front of me, he's doing a legit 40 in a 50 while playing on his laptop. Whatever. I get in the left lane and slowly pass him then go back into right lane. Some other car also passes him and gets behind him. We all come up to the main intersection. Cop gets into left lane but not pulling up right beside me (around 2 cars behind in my blind corner). Now I know that he's running my plates. Light turns green and we all make a left turn. Cherries go off. I pull into a works parking lot (lol ironically). Have my 4 ways on ect. He's sitting in his new Ford Taurus. So I'm thinking ok, gotta turn my dash cam so it records me and the officer. So I started moving it and turning it to get a better angel...Then all of the sudden I see this cop run out out of this car and practically get in my face and being all rude. Cop: What are you doing and taking off there?!! (Probably thinking it's a radar detector). Me: Take it easy, it's my dash camera. I will be recoding this conversation. (So here I notified him that this will be legit recoding which can be used in court law if anything.) He made face like this :shock:. Looks at the camera then looks at me. Then says: "Sit right here!" And runs back to his car. So another 5min pass. Comes walking to my car and all of the sudden sounds all professional and has a better tone of voice. Said that my exhaust is illegal. I tell him that he's 4th office to tell me that since 2008 but not ticket were issued by other offices. So he goes to the back of my car and checking out my exhaust....I opened the door as I wanted to see exactly what he's doing (don't want any surprises). He told me to get back into my car....Ok, no problem. Comes back and gives me a big lecture on how mufflers work. I was all nice and told him that I'll be selling car soon. He then says he's not going to write me a ticket, gave me my papers back and let me go. Over all not a bad experience but I feel that if I didn't have that dash camera things could be different with his power trip. I suggest everyone to get one. Mine is from Pacific Mall and was $54, takes pretty good video and sound.
p.s. Pacific mall SD card failed on me and didn't record anything. Not even sure when it stopped working as I rarely check vids. Need new card now.
