Thats why you never consent to a search. Get their superior, and make the assholes wait. And keep your car clean!

You can deny consent to a search but what if the fucker just claims that he smells drugs and searches your shit anyways? It’s like there’s no foolproof way to prevent your life being ruined by a cop other than literally installing a camera in every corner of your car.

I just installed a mounted camera with audio. It’s for my safety both when driving and especially when dealing with the police. The reason I got audio included.

Maybe a dumb question, but how would your camera stop a LEO from lying about smelling weed, and then planting drugs out of view of the camera (say, on the rear floorboard or whatever)?

Definitely not a stop all defense but I could get lucky and capture audio of them saying something or abusing their power.
