Had some fun while flying about 150 ft above my house, watching a cop speed trapping, pulling cars over. He was working hard.

So, I was practicing flying my M3 in my neighborhood, mostly above my house. I was at about 150ft. As I was turning, I noticed a cop had someone pulled over on the main road nearby. As I continued practicing maneuvers, I saw the cop again with a different driver pulled over. Then again, and again and again. I swear he pulled over 10-15 cars during the time I was watching. He didn't seem to pay any attn to the drone.

I would watch a couple minutes for each car, from a long distance, using explorer mode. I didn't witness any shootings.

Sorry, but I didn't feel like posting any video. It was Boring.

A pity, but ramp up the speed say 30x and it would probably be ok.

I didn't post that vid, but you can change the speed settings. 1.75x makes it sound pretty funny.

Sounds like he was pulling over speeding drivers, or drivers breaking local laws, why would there be shootings, cheers Len

Just thought i'd through the shootings part in, seeing as the news is filled with cops killing people now a days. It was meant to be sarcastic.

That's one of the most fascinating things about the news. They find rare and interesting stories, publish them many times (in many places), and then some folks think it's happening in every city/town on Earth.

Must have been near the end of the month and the cop was trying to meet quota.

“Why would there be shootings” ???
Because many of us live in America.

Canada, at a 14 rank, actually has a better freedom rating than the USA. If I recall correctly USA ranks like 44 in freedom out of about 110 countries. HERE IS A PARTIAL LIST BELOW: Of course, I doubt this can be correlated to drone freedoms. I wonder if they will make a drone freedoms list someday. I know the Middle east is super restrictive on drone use. Surprisingly, Mexico is very prohibitive to drones flown by foreigners. Foreigners simply can't fly in Mexico. Mexico is rated at 61 I think.

I went on a cruise to Mexico. I wish I could have taken my drone, but I wasn't going to risk it being held until I returned to my country or even risk flying it in Mexico.
