For Your Consideration From Another Board
Have been reading where many people are recording their car sessions on video or camera on their phone. Warning! This can be used against you. Your phone is not so protected under the 4th amendment. I did some research and this is an excerp from an article:
" If a person willingly hands over a phone, an officer can usually upload the needed information relatively quickly from either a patrol car computer or at headquarters, Grubbs said. But if a person refuses to give up his phone and police believe it contains evidence of a crime, then officers can seize it. Grubbs said a search warrant isn't needed at the time officers seize the phone, but one is in order to download information from the device. A phone seized as evidence will take longer to return to its owner than if the person handed it over willingly, Grubbs said. If a person is arrested then his or her belongings, including cellphone, can be searched by police. Grubbs couldn't cite specifics but said it's become more and more common that people are capturing crimes on their phones that officers then need to see.".
So I would not recommend recording any of your activities, for if you are stopped all that can be used against you.
Supreme Court slated to address this issue by close of session. Outcome hardly in doubt.
