New presentation version of the day tours with Google Maps and of course with a few videos from my K2 dual camera.

Here is the first report:

How to show your tour with google maps

1. Run Google Maps
2. Click on 3 dashes in the upper left corner
3. choose "Your places"
4. select "Maps"
5. Select "create map"
6. Load GPX file (just try different settings for color change, rename and so on)
7. next to the legend, there is "add marker", so I have the points for films, photos, etc. made

I'm surprised this is allowed in Germany. There seems to be a little paranoia about google monitoring citizens as Streetview is banned in most of the Federal Republic, which is really annoying...

That I can do that does not mean that it is allowed

StreetView works everywhere in Germany, but Google had to pixelate the whole faces and who does not want to recognize as an example his house Google had to pixelate that too.
With Google maps I know no restrictions.

Insanity that comes to mind as some people and even more crazy is that there are politicians who put this into practice.
If I'm walking across the street and being filmed then that's how it is, it's public. In the private sector, it's all different - but google does not want to go there either.
I am glad that Google is still doing something in Germany with regard to the laws, that is a pleasure to use for tour planning.

My bigger problem are the videos. Here the case law is even stupider. Normally you have to pixelate all other plates and faces. Filming permanently is not allowed!

So Holger, does that mean that dashcams are illegal in Germany?

Forbidden - no, not really but not allowed without restrictions. Accurate statements are difficult to get, I probably only know it when I'm in court.

I asked for it at my automobile club (ADAC), to this a few translated quotes from the answer:

.... uninvolved road users or their vehicles are recorded and these records stored. Thus, the collection and recovery of such documentation is legally problematic and the use of Dashcams controversial.

A dissemination of such recordings or even the commercial use without appropriate consent or blurring of people and license plates violates the privacy in any case. There is a violation of the general right to privacy and thus also of the right to informational self-determination of other road users.

... In that regard, when using a dashcam, it can not be ruled out that a penalty procedure will be initiated due to a violation of the Data Protection Act.

This is only a small part of what the lawyer wrote to me, as always very inaccurate and when it gets serious you are guilty.
As always: no risk - no fun

No - does not have to be.

Selling dashcams, actioncams, etc. is not prohibited.
Many already have one (or more) camera on the helmet or bike today?

The domain is also free
