Does taking photo of police vehicles near officers like this gets you in trouble?

It depends on how much they care, really. If it's just traffic police, they would be more concerned with their job than ticking me off. Else, it's a game of chance.
One of those times when it turned wrong was when I captured plate 60C-1096 (nomer23286899), when a police officer gave me a mild warning. I explained that I was doing this as a hobby, and while he did understand that, he still gave me a slight caution not to upload this on the web with defamatory or erroneous (however the law defines them) comments. Of course, I was still a bit spooked after this.
Though, when I finally got the means to buy a 360-degree camera, I wouldn't have to sneak up on governmental or military vehicles again.

Well, there's a time that it went wrong for me. I remember it happened few months ago when I photographed a traffic police Wave. Then the officer near there asked me what were I doing there, threatened to take me to the nearest local police station and force me to delete it. Thank god they didn't confiscated my phone though. After I deleted the photo, they let me go with a warning. I think they acted like that because it was near an embassy and Hanoi is already a sensitive place. Still, everytime I remember that day it still sends chills down my spine and I learned a lesson: Only take photos of police/military vehicles when the vehicle is unoccupied, no one is near it and parked in a normal area. Though after reading some laws, it turns out that civilians could photo traffic police as long as they don't mess with them but I think it's the best to not ticking them. Anyways, thanks for the answer and I hope you get that 360-degree camera soon, hopefully I can also get one in the future when I could make some cash.
