Legal Regulations on Dash Cams in Cars

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Checks and maintenance

Are there regulations regarding Dash Cams? Indirectly: nothing prevents you from having a camera in the car, as long as it is not in the driver's hands and does not obstruct the front or rear view. The footage is permitted, but it must be for strictly personal use. If you intend to post it on any social network, you must either 1) have written consent from the depicted individuals, 2) obscure their faces (and also the number plates of vehicles); 3) only take panoramic shots. 4) It is permissible to film police officers while they are performing their duties. Do recordings have legal value in a potential trial? In civil cases, videos are evidence only if they are not contested by the opposing party (which almost always happens), but the contestation must be based on convincing and not generic data. They can thus fall into the so-called "atypical evidence," which the judge may choose to evaluate or not. It depends on the case. Is it legal to install a surveillance camera? Yes, as long as it only records the thing being monitored and is properly signposted.
