Yeah I would have to agree with you.. It is kinda crazy to take a pic of the car with you in it.. And Kaban is right with haveing dark tint.. People look and look but they still cant see you.. I love it.

I keep my Casio Exilim on me whenever possible, and have taking pictures going down the highway more than once. It's not the best camera, but it's pocket sized, so I don't mind having it on me, and I love getting pictures of interesting things.

Is CT pretty strict on tint?? It seems like FLA doesn't care because almost everybody has illegal tint down here. I have 8%.

I keep my Fuji digicam in the glovebox just in case. You never know when you need to take a photo for legal reasons like being involved in an accident or being unjustly ticketed when there is not a "no parking" sign for miles. Every now and then I'll pull it out if I see some BS on the street that I just gotta show my friends. For example...

I get people taking pics of my Lexus down here and especially my friend's RX-7, both very rare south of the border.

I usually don't have a problem with it, but one recent example involved a car getting too close and nearly bumping into me. Guy yelled to me (translated into English), "Hey, I am just trying to take a picture of your car."

What happened to keeping your eyes on the road?
