<div>Corking, running red lights, and running stop signs; theres a purpose on why its done. In my opinion, I'd say record. I don't live in Boston, and attend Rhode Islands CM's, but I love watching boston, SF, and other peoples rides on youtube, old and recent. </div>

<div>There are vests you can buy that hold a camera right on your chest. I have seen a camera mounted on the handlebars. I don't know what there called, but they are around.</div>

<div>And yes, police officers have been FIRED due to video tapes being used against them. They had an incidient in NY were an officer assaulted a critical mass participant, and long and behold, another CM'er was taping it. The officer was then fired.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>just be careful on who and when you video tape. I have seen people who video tape arrests, then being arrested themselfs. <br><br></div>

run red lights and stop signs and "cork" intersections. Being still<br>quite new to CM rides, is there some kind of general understanding<br>about recording or photographing? Has a video ever been used as<br>"evidence" against a participant?<br>

Has anyone tried recording wirelessly, instantly streaming and archiving online?<br>Could have been extremely helpful.<br><br>Thanks.<br><br>-S<br>_______________________________________________<br>Boston Critical Mass mailing list<br>
