Do I tell people about my in-car camera?
Do you have to advertise an in-car camera recording inside the vehicle?

Hi Francis,
If it's a private vehicle then, technically, no - it's your car and you can do what you want with it, but it might be at least morally correct to let anyone who's being recorded know what's going on. And if you intend using the videos for any kind of commercial project then, yes, you must get written clearance from people before you're allowed to use their image in the public domain for profit.
If it's a company car or a taxi then it may in part depend on the terms and conditions of your employment and it would be a good idea to seek legal advice first.
