In CA it is legal to take pictures and/or video of things or people in public places generally meaning the street or park or sitting in their car on a public street. I have done that probably a dozen times in the 30+ years we have lived in the house we have which is a very low crime area. If nothing else it gives me something to use in case a crime occurs or other weird happenings. In all cases, as soon as the person noticed me, they started their car and left so I also got a plate number too.
