The only reason a cop wants you to stop filming is because he's about to break the law

It is getting to the point where drivers need to have hidden cameras in their trucks; because so many D.O.T and other officers can't be trusted.

Great job Dot. Had similar incident happen to me in West Virginia. Pulled over for dot inspection. Log book was up to date last entry 45 minutes ago, all safety equipment was top notch, driver was well rested and alert. Ticketed for rust the size of a tic tack on my trailer tag. Thank the officer, promptly went to terminal and retired after 34 years of accident free driving over 3 million miles. You can go get your own groceries from now on. I'm done! The general public has no idea what some dot officers are doing to good drivers just for money. Good luck drivers and God bless you for the thankless job you do.

Need to start class action lawsuits against this bs harassment and unlawful money grabs through bogus fines

The moment he wanted you to turn your phone off and put it on airplane mode I feel like that itself was over the top and he was about to violate all kinds of laws SMH.. I hope you’re planning on hiring a lawyer because even though you got away clean, you could’ve lost your CDL and definitely your freedom for something you were extremely innocent of! people like him need to be off the road

I've been trucking with my CDL-A for over twenty-one years and in that time I've never seen such a blatant desecration of a trucker's home and a freemans basic rights.

This state needs to do a formal investigation into this officer and on his past performance has probably did this a lot and needs to be held accountable for not doing his job correctly!

When I first started driving my mentor made it very clear that “DOT IS NOT YOUR FRIEND”. Part of my trip planning is to avoid open weigh/inspection stations. Don’t give them opportunity.

They need to be sued, the department and personally. The "law" enforcers need to be put into check before vigilantes start taking things into their own hands.

The officer is just unprofessional for coping an attitude with everything with you, and assuming things about your past. People who want to attack you just for being you don't deserve your time.

DOT cannot get inside the cab of your truck unless they ask your permission first. I got pulled in at the scales in Ardmore,TN. about 8-9 years ago & the officer asked me if he could inspect inside my truck so I said I didn't have anything to hide so go ahead. After he finished I asked him "When you asked if you could look around in my truck what if I had said no?" He said "I would've tucked my tail between my legs & go back into the scale house." From they day on I decided if an officer ever asked to look inside my truck I will tell them no. Only way they can get in your truck is if you give them permission or they have a search warrant.

Tell the cop that’s a violation of my constitutional rights and I do have the right to record you at any point of any time in public

The guy turns his life around with honest living and this is what he gets? I can't imagine what truckers had to deal with before they had cameras.

“No matter how paranoid or conspiracy-minded you are, what the government is Actually doing is worse than you imagine.”

This is common treatment. I had one DOT Officer put a piece of paper in my abs sensor on my trailer so that I would show a fail. Luckily it was a windy day and the paper blew out during the test (I saw it go, that's how I knew. Plus the look on his face, was priceless, knowing he'd been caught) I was let go immediately. Kentucky

the only time a law enforcement officer can conduct a search without a warrant or probable cause is at the border. any other situation, he can ask and you are within your rights to refuse.

You can tell by the way that the one DOT officer looks" that he was punked out whenever he was in highschool! He just has the kind of face that even a mother would punch.😂😂😂😂😂

As someone with a background in audio/video production, it’s completely legal to photograph or video record anything on public property where there should be no expectation of privacy, the truck driver should have continued video recording and ask the officers for their name and badge numbers

This is what gives good cops a bad name!!! Respect must be given to be recieved

This is one of the reasons I've bought and wear a bodycam that doubles as a dashcam. It runs all day and records all interactions I have with anyone I encounter.

This guy was just like a mall security cop with an over inflated sense of power. " I GOT A GUN AND I'M IMPOTENT "

So he wanted to search him based off of his “criminal history”. Drivers seriously need to invest in cameras for inside the cab/bunk for stops just like this.

Never allow them them to search. We need lawyers by our side too.

Driving through Ohio the first time when I was pulled over for my first DOT inspection. Made the officer chase me for several miles - his light bar was all RED no blue at all. When I finally stopped he asked why I made him chase me, I told him I didn't know I could get pulled over by the fire department. That was the same one that cited me for unsecure load when my tire chocks were in a closed sealed locked metal box.

hey drivers you can buy all kinds of hidden cameras and Eyewear cameras for your truck and you, don't let them harass you out there 😉

DOT was wrong. I would have said, I plead the 5th on any ?? he asked. I also would have said I respectfully decline searching the interior of my truck. If they did anyway; he had them on video. Hire lawyer and sue that department, for violating 4th amendment.

On my way to turn in the truck .after 3 years I'm quiting this truck driving career. GOD bless all the truckers it's a hell of the job .

You should have stood your ground and sued these pigs you would have won in court you have right man protect them.

I have had plenty of level one inspections and never once did they ever enter my personal space. Sorry pal, you need probably cause or a search warrant.

Typical law enforcement over stepping their boundaries. Thinking they are the law.

To Protect and Serve is the biggest lie Police have ever told.

This is the life of a car hauler! They always want to search everything! I’ve had trips where I got searched in every state coast to coast! One state trooper stopped me so many times he remembered my CDL #! One thing that I learned was to grab a business card from first one to search my truck and I would tell next ones hey just call the guy he searched me already and it’s a same load.

He was on a power trip that's why we don't give people authority over us, you did nothing wrong God bless you, stay positive.

Sounds like this DOT officer had a hardon for the driver when he saw that he had a DUI on his record. He seemed fixated on that.. The driver was 100% cooperative despite the nasty attitude of the cops.

Evil is always lurking… and we got a glimpse of how evil works in people….

That is total BS. He had NO RIGHT to search that truck and I would take the DOT Officer to court for ILLEGAL search without probable cause..

I had a dot officer search my truck once then when he went to Inspect my piss bottle thinking it was alcohol i just laughed at the expression on his face when he got a big whiff

Wow he’s a very professional officer by stepping out of the cab the wrong way

I have told them, when they want to look inside my truck, "go get your warrant, i'll wait", it shuts them down EVERY time

As always , Great work!

That was harassment period!! I feel so bad that you were treated like that out there doing your job. This over stepping of boundaries by law enforcement is a crime and they just keep doing it and getting away with it! Disgusting!!!

That officer was way out of line When the DA stopped there I would’ve filed a formal complaint “You have multiple violations but didn’t cite one with exception of insufficient load strap. It’s a shame that Law Enforcement Officers like this give the real professional Officers a bad rap. I have been through many inspections (1-3 tier) and haven’t encountered an officer such as this one. I would’ve filed a formal complaint with this footage. and what was that about the driver’s past record. He made a mistake, paid his dues as obviously he has his CDL and his profession. With that reasoning… I used to color outside the lines in Kindergarten and also have a shoebox full of mattress tags hidden in my house. I guess that I’m not fit for duty Oh, and I once went through the “7” item express lane with “8” items at the Supermarket… Here’s my CDL officer

An attorney’s perspective and an explanation of our rights and what these clowns are and are not allowed to do would have been really nice

Another case of a bully with a badge. These need to be eliminated by whatever means is necessary. As long as they are gone.

Get ready truckers you are enemy #1!! I hate the government!! This is overreach, but it’s just a bully tactic!!

Up in Kentucky on 64 east bound last scale house pulled me in on a Sunday morning around eleven o’clock. Started a level two inspection. Told me to stay in truck. I was watching him as he went under my trailer. My truck started to rock back ion forth. I had put new air lines under my trailer on Friday & grommets. He took his pocket knife cutting the grommet out and pulling on the air line. Taking him about three minutes before he broke the line. I had my GoPro on my tractor trailer to keep a eye on tandem tires. I watched the whole episode and got out of my truck and he told me to get back in my truck. I was told by another trucker that Kentucky was bad about cutting air lines and backing off brakes. They are contract scale people. I called US MARSHALL’s office and a Marshall was their in twenty minutes. Showing him my GoPro footage. He let me drop my trailer and go get a splicer and shut down the scale house. I sent him the footage to his phone. . When I got home I had new line put back on and Kentucky paid for it plus the down time on my truck. Definitely came out ahead. SEMPER FIDELIS

I kept a fake rat in my glovebox for just such an occasion It scared the shit out of a few DOT

That was harassment to a whole new degree. That did not seem like a routine stop, that seemed personal if you ask me.

There was an incident about 20 yrs. ago at the Manchester TN. Scales where a DOT officer got his ass beat by a driver. The driver and his wife ran team, and the tire biter insisted he was going into the sleeper to inspect, refusing to allow the driver to wake his wife and make sure she was dressed. When he tried to get in the truck, the driver pulled him off the step and the fight was on. As I recall, the assault charges on the driver were dismissed, and the tire biter was fired. I don’t remember wether or not the driver and his wife sued, but they definitely should have.

How are dot officers being allowed to do truck drivers like this with no repercussions .

Your truck is your home. That’s protected by the fourth. The officer stopped him for his past. He should file a complaint and get a lawyer for civil rights violations. Also never ever drive with your main curtain open. If you get pulled over don’t let them claim in plain sight because your curtain was open.

I’ve had 3 level ones and never had an officer climb in my cab period. He stood on my step to check the low warning light. That’s it

"Go ahead and search my truck" Brilliant. Just Brilliant

my brother who a cdl driver said some dot officers will get away with anything and everything.

They can't do that without a search warrant. Record and ask for the supervisor. If anything happens after that. Document it all and take them to court. You will win.

The abuse of power, misconduct and laws broken by that officer both federal laws and constitution laws as well as local laws, enough to not only get the police officer fired, but a solid lawsuit for early retirement.

They broke the law. That driver need to be educated on his rights.

If they were talking to DEA officers then your truck was marked for investigation beforehand. They were after you for some dumb reason.

never stop recording and if arrested the cops will be in the wrong and there are a lot of lawsuits for officers violating our GOD GIVEN RIGHTS, stay strong and safe y'all

I'm praying for all drivers it's getting bad out here use your cameras please.

Yep... I feel you man. Welcome to the wonderful world of commercial driving. You give up a lot of your rights to almost make a living.

You know we need truck drivers right now why are these cops on Earth giving these young men a hard time my God!!

If ANY local cop pulls you over and starts harassing you, call the state troopers. And always keep your video and recorders on. Don't ask permission to record. You don't need it.

Violation of private belongings and place of rest. He's only allowed to look in the side box and glance in the cab. He can sue for that reason.

Being a truck driver looks like a REALLY miserable job. I'm very grateful there are people willing to do it though.

Cops are wrong in this one. They had a mission from jump street! Keep trucking and keep doing your thing

This is why drivers should be informed of what DOT can and can’t do. I would have told him to kiss my ass about search and it would have been on from there.I damn sure wouldn’t have turned off my phone because he knew it was wrong and would have been your word against his if you complain.

That sounds like a lawsuit waiting to start against the state. Where’s the body cam footage?

Every time I've had to deal with a DOT officer they've always been professional, polite and courteous.

When you’re on the road, your cab is considered your home! So therefore they need to have a warrant to enter your truck. Definitely a lawsuit

I'm gonna call it straight how it is, (racial profiling) at it's finest with this one

That DOT officer needs to be put on administration leave , because I’m pretty sure he has done several drivers like this , and it’s sad that this so called officers gives the good ones a bad reputation.

Hold this officer accountable with a lawsuit. He had no search warrant to enter or stretch your home.

File a lawsuit for violation of your 4th amendment rights, he has no right to go inside your bunk area.

Been doing this for 7 years and I would've gotten my company to sue that officer for what he did. Next time keep cameras in your truck because that man would've lost his job after my company came after him

Those officers were pricks. You were very professional and cooperative. And you were a lot more patient than I would have been!

He should get a lawyer. His Constitution rights were violated..

The DOT officer violated DOT regulations when he came out of the truck fowards instead of climbing out backwards with 3 points of contact

At the very least those officers should be accountable. Letting things like this go only feeds their power trip

Officer is in the wrong his 4th was violated

Incompetent inspectors should be reported and removed, apparently he likes making his own laws up.

That cop was breaking the law!!!...he need to sue!

I think most are bad. Very few who are out here actually doing the right thing protecting and serving.

I long for a day when citizens will start treating cops exactly the way they treat citizens

Never never stop filming especially when I ask you to stop filming and just take whatever they do and Sue the s*** out of them later

Treated that driver like he was a criminal.

Seems to me after they ran his ID they decided to go fishing since he has a DUI in his jacket.

You really need to get a lawyer for this guy and just for the record as your constitutional right to record yourself while dealing with any police officer and no they can not order you to shut your phone off when they are performing a public service that goes whether they are investigating you or whether you are recording someone else being investigated by the police as long as you would be 25 feet away not interfere with the investigation

You need a camera everywhere now a days. Put your own camera in cab and make them undetectable and record from now on. Turn on when they stop you and turn them off when they are done. Vehicle is still considered private property.

I'll be damned if you could search my truck without a warrant

DOT have been highway pirates for years

Thanks for standing up for your fellow truckers

Friend of mine drives dump truck in Maryland. Got inspected by DOT on the Eastern Shore. He had a tire low on air pressure. Cop tired to tell him he had to pay to have a service truck to come out to air up his tire instead of him airing it up using his air compressor on the truck. My friend told him he was not going to do that and waited 3 hours before the cop finally drove off. People need to start standing up to them and harassing their local representatives to get this garbage to stop

That is clearly a violation of the drivers rights. The officers were stereo typing the driver.

He can't tell you to turn your phone off....that's your right! They can record you right? Don't they get paid by we the people? This was harassment....

That stop was outrageous. The bunk looked like it had been ransacked. Pulling a truck in because of a violation is one thing, but pulling a truck in and being hellbent to find something is harassment. The questioning was out of line. It's no one's business what his history was. The officer was on a mission to find something that wasn't there and the whole time he's burning his 14 hours up.

How come some has t file a lawsuit against these DOT Inspectors for violating their 4th Amendment Rights?

That’s called illegal search The driver is responsible for checking all that

WTF we as truckers should not be treated like this *EVER* DOT treat us like we're criminals.*EVERYTHING* the officer use in everyday life is brought by us, smh we are definitely not appreciated enough for the job that we do being away from family so everyone is is taken care of.
