I'm still po'ed for getting a ticket 4 years ago. The a-hat even admitted I wasn't speeding when I passed in front of him. Excuse me, the speed limit dropped directly in front of him at the city limit which means I was going below the speed limit. Jerk. Didn't matter because that was a speed trap area so no way to get out of it. What about people who can't wear seatbelts? Some, like pregnant women, have problems with the lap strap. Some are short so the strap slices them across the neck. I'm not that short but mine shoulder strap comes straight across my neck and cuts into my neck leaving marks immediately and is so tight I can't breathe. It WILL decapitate me so how the heck am I supposed to wear it? What about people who clip their seatbelts with homemade or store bought devices? Will they get ticketed because they've made adjustments? One size does not fit all. Not everyone is a 6' 185 lb man.
That's a very good reason to record the conversation. You know, it takes the officer a minute or two to check you out while sitting in his car. During that time, you should not only have your license, registration and insurance cards ready, but you should turn your cellphone to its "record" mode. Of course, that depends where you live as to its legality, but here in Texas I can record any conversation of which I'm a part without the permission or knowledge of the other party.
RECORD EVERY DEALING YOU HAVE WITH THE POLICE IF YOU CAN!
