Some of you guys probably read about my incident with the police last week... I started to think about ways I could protect myself from this kind of problem again.
I have been planning to purchase a harness bar and video camera mounts in my car so that I study my driving at the track events etc. I have begun thinking about how I could possibly keep my video recorder or whatever video telemetry equipment on ALL the time including some telemetry data such as RPMs, Speed etc so that I can use that as evidence AGAINST police when they wrongfully pull me over. I have looked at some equipment from PiResearch, but their equipment is a little too costly for me for what I want to do. I basically want a cheap CCD/recorder or just a regular video camera that somehow super-imposes the telemtry data right onto the recording.
If anyone has any ideas or has done something like this before, I'd be really interested in knowing how it was done.
If the solution costs too much, then I probably will have to figure out something cheaper... maybe even just getting a cheapo 8mm video camera and just point it down at my instrument gauge and out the window.
Anyways... it seems like a pretty fun project nonetheless.
If the solution is affordable, maybe other people would also be interested to use it to improve their driving skills at the track as well.
