One of my friends drank too much and was arrested. I won't get into the details...

 

I'm wondering, in Thailand, like in Western countries, are you allowed to film the police so that you are treated well if arrested?

    It is absolutely legal. Not only that but you are morally obligated to do so!

     

    never have any unexpected interaction without recording it for your own safety!

    Sure can. Depending on the situation and as a foreigner it might just be better to handover the tea money.

    Indeed. Knowledge is power. It's why so many governments try to suppress it.

    So basically you can.

     

    But if s/he's drunk and waving their gun around discretion is advisable.

    In another of your threads you ask about filming in shopping centers.

    Think I have probable cause.

    Not all "western countries" are the same.

    You could also ask in which Western countries can you refuse a random breath test.

    Random means no requirement for reason to require a test drug/alcohol 

    The stupidest thing a farang can do is get involved with the police, the second most is lipping off or filming them.

     

    There are plenty of other camers everythwere.
