Video Surveillance Camera pointed toward my home. Is this legal?
Thanks, BB. I was hoping that if his camera was pointed at my house and he could see inside the windows, that it would be unlawful. It feels so creepy that I thought it had to be wrong. I'm not sure he CAN see inside the house, but it looks like it. When I pass by my front windows, I can see...- RunningOnEmpty

You are legally entitled to the fair market value of your vehicle, not what it would cost to repair it. The guy does not have to pay you more than the car was worth before it was wrecked. And of course he wants you to sign a release after he pays you. Wouldn't you want the same? Sounds...- RunningOnEmpty
