Why should I Blurr License Plates in Video production

[jddjasdip]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California:

Hi
I'm making a video dvd to sell, and some shots have cars in them and can see their license. You can't see the faces of the people in the cars. What is the risk if I don't blur the license plates out?

I'm blurring out faces in the video, but also what would the risk be if I didn't blur faces?

Huge Thanks in advance!What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?

If you blur them then you eliminate any possibility (however slight) of exposure and the money and hassle of somebody complaining about it years from now.

A viewer might track the license holder down and cause them harm, for whatever reason.

Then life would get pretty interesting for you.

Just use your own vehicles and license plates in the video.
