I believe that there's a specific exception to this law if the police are addressing the person filming i.e. you can film your own interaction with police within 8 feet but not someone else's. I can imagine that it would cause issues with traffic stops if the passenger starts to film the interaction.
- notch656a 4y agoYes but what if I'm a passenger who wants to film a stop of the driver and am ordered to stay in the car along with the driver? My 1A rights are then restricted?
- ndsipa_pomu 4y agoI guess you could argue that if the officer orders you to stay in the vehicle, then they are interacting directly with you, but I don't know how that would play out in court.
- jccooper 4y agoPassengers in involved cars are also allowed to film explicitly by the law.
- Sevii 4y agoThe law specifically calls out the case of passengers in the car being allowed to film a traffic stop.
