Posted by Terrapin Station on Fri Nov 9 10:30:48 2007, in response to Re: Amtrak photo policy, posted by Easy on Fri Nov 9 09:24:14 2007. I think that cops are more likely to leave you alone if you let them know what you're doing. If not, who knows what starts running through their heads that makes them want to be a-holes?But Bob asked and the cop said NO. And then he said he was a ticketed passenger (which should have been downright OBVIOUS) and so the COP gave him a restriction (that he had to make it quick). That's B.S. As a ticketed passenger you are allowed to take photos while boarding and detraining. There are no restrictions on the public being at the end of the platform that I know of. So Bob was totally in the right to go and take these photos without asking. The Amtrak rules do not say that you must ask a cop first. Why give up your rights? When you ask, the cop can say NO, and then you're gonna go disobey him? Instead, you can go get a few shots off before the cop comes running. Then he'll either say NO (but you already have a few shots), or he'll let you continue because you are doing nothing wrong and he's not a complete a-hole. |
