Maybe I am missing something crucial. I can understand being stopped for traffic violations. While the officer with the drawn gun was clearly over reacting, there was a marked car with lights flashing directly behind the rider involved in the stop so I am guessing he knew they were cops. My problem is with the "wiretapping" charge. Recording video on a helmet cam can in no way be construed as "wiretapping". Secondly, anyone can be filmed or recorded as long as they are in a public place, and a highway is certainly a public place. I can't peep in your window and videotape you through a crack in your curtains as you have a reasonable expectation of privacy in your home, but if you are walking down the street, or conducting a traffic stop, it is completely legal to record anything and everything. Perhaps Maryland laws are different than Texas.
