Looks bona fide - Gaz and BM could make a fortune!


You would need to go through the Channel 5 and Sky websites to make sure thats really the production company they used imo.

I also think people should refrain from making money off helmet cam footage. We do this because we want the roads to be safer, to raise a profile of issues, or as an "insurance policy" of evidence if something does go wrong.

Didn't the Info Commisioner say we cant make money from the clips anyway? That it would require licensing of some sort?

It's a tricky one.
I got the impression that if you did make money then it will fall under a different section of the DPA as it would no longer be classed as personal use. That doesn't necessarily mean a license is involved but you will probably need to get signatures from all parties involved. Which isn't going to happen :laugh:

But if you look at how filming for TV shows etc.. is done on the roads then a license is required before filming can even start. I don't know enough about that license to say if we would need it.

I think you make a good point about why we started doing this in the first place. And selling the rights to our footage to someone and not knowing what it will be used for is not the best thing. At least if we own the rights then we have a certain level of control as to how it is used (i say certain level of control as I've had my footage used on TV and not had anyone ask me.)

i am very suprised no one in the cars didnt honk or at least stop and help shows what a sad state we coming to to be honest.

if people actually helped others we wouldnt have such idiots like that bloke being able to get away with that sort of abuse on other members of the public.

Pretty sure that if you post it on YouTube you no longer own the rights.

The report said the police are now treating it as a public order offence?
It was clearly assault. Try doing that to any copper and you'll very swiftly find yourself caged in the back of a Police van being taken back to the station where you will most certainly be charged.
