Don't ever be afraid of having your legally owned firearms in your legally owned vehicle. It is your 2nd ammendment right and officers will not hassle you for having legal guns. Now, if your a convicted felon slinging dope - shame on you! But if you are here on SC and amoung the crowd of hard working Americans looking to blow off some steam and play on the internet in between hunting and fishing - you have nothing to worry about! PERIOD! So don't ever be "afraid" of having your guns!!!!
Officers don't just search vehicles. Usually we have tell tale signs that point us that way. Just relax, be cordial and answer the officers questions. As far as the video thing you stated the lack of it because he was on a motorcycle - most wear body cameras now. FYI- "MOTORS" refers to motorcylce officers and most cities that have them work a specific division, which is "traffic". They do not respond to run of the mill calls such as a disturbance or shoplifiting. They are out there to enforce "traffic" laws, thus he is paid to enforce what he sees. How many times has he been to court in front of Judge ABC where someone said "I wasn't speeding"? - Hundreds of times! - Were you speeding? - Don't know, I wasn't there. Will you win in court? - "NO".
