Camera Operations
Motorcycle Tracking
Filming by a pillion passenger facing backwards
on a motorcycle is only acceptable if the motorbike is properly
adapted, and the rider and camera operator are competent,
experienced specialists capable of thoroughly risk assessing the
activity. This should not take place on public roads unless special
controls and arrangements are in place. E.g. London
Marathon.
Unmanned, fixed mini-cameras may be useful for
shots on and from motorcycles on a public road. However, they must
be securely fixed (a safety bond may be required), not
significantly protrude, or increase the likelihood of rider or
pedestrian injury should an accident occur.
Special insurance may be required for the above
activities.
