I searched for something like this with no luck. So here is a place to share any RC related run ins with the police, good or bad.

My first experience with the cops involving RC was good. Last winter I was running my G2R in an empty Walmart parking lot when a local cop came up to me and offered to radar it for me. I def thought that was pretty cool of him.

Yesterday I had my second experience. Although it turned out just fine I would classify it as a bad experience. I was running my crt.5 in my apartment parking lot, I have been running in this lot since I got started in RC. I was asked not to run the nitros in the evening when I had them but they're all gone! Anyways I had went off into the yard and turned to come back, I lost sight for a minute so I let off. It had come back up the hill I had went down but was way off and hit a bump that sent it into a little tumble and it stopped when the tire bumped into the side of a car. The guys alarm went off and he ran out. I walked over and there was no scrathes, dents, or anything except a spot where the dust was wiped off. He started yelling and swearing at me, pushed me, all while I was trying to apologize. Then he went to far and knocked my DX3R out of my hand, pushed me, and threatened to knock me out. I told him to go for it, it'll be the biggest mistake of your life! He asked would do and I told him I'd call the cops. He said go for it, why don't you call them right now, so I did. When the cop got here he realized the other guy had a cocky and bad attitude, that I was telling the truth that he pushed me, and that there was no damage to his car. The manager of the apartment complex had even come over and said that I have permission to run in the parking lot anytime I want. So although I had to call the cops on bad terms it turned out to work against the guy pretty much as he proved he was nothing but an A**hole to the cop.

Everyone else feel free to post your stories! I'd love to read about them, especially the good ones.
