Ask Officer Raff:
Dear Officer Raff,
I was wondering if there are laws prohibiting people from
putting up a motion sensitive camera on their own property but
pointing directly at a neighbor's property across the street. If
not illegal, it's certainly un-neighborly to spy on your neighbor's
driveway and property. Signed, Miffed in Stanton
Dear Miffed,
While I won't disagree that recording what goes on in a neighbor's driveway or
on their property seems to be un-neighborly, it is not generally illegal. A person
has no expectation of privacy when in clear view of members of the public.
Therefore, if the nosy neighbor's camera captures your yard, driveway or other
areas that anyone driving or walking by would be able to see, there is no violation
of the law. If the situation is one which is causing you distress and you do not
feel speaking with your neighbor regarding your concerns would be productive,
perhaps a privacy fence or planting some trees or shrubs to block their view
might be an option?
Regards, Officer Raff
