I am curious about the legality of posting photographs of people caught in the act of breaking the law. Is this legal? Is this partially legal, as in can I post photographs (That I take myself) of people and mask their identity with black bars over their eyes? I ask because I have been frustrated with a specific intersection in town that drivers keep blocking. It is a semi-main intersection and I am getting frustrated because everyday, literaly, I get trapped there. The intersection has a "Do not block intersection" sign clearly posted before the intersection, but this does not deter drivers, even police vehicles have blocked this road! I want to stand out there just one day and photograph every driver who blocks the intersection, get their license plate # and post those photos on the web (W/O license #).
I also wonder whether I could go one step further and actually use the photographs as evidence and 'force' action to be taken against the drivers themselves? Can my photographs be strong enough evidence to permit local police to issue tickets to these drivers?
Thanks in advance for any advice anyone can give me!
