I doubt very many such laws (if any) really exist.  I used to have a
dash camera (w/ outside sounds recorded via an external weatherproof
mic) in my car, at the suggestion of a couple of police officers.  As
long as you aren't following someone as to constitute stalking, you
are entitled to record anything that is plainly obvious on public
roadways.  There is no expectation of privacy on public roads except
under limited cir***stances within your own car.
