The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6683, aims to amend chapter 246 of the general statutes to enhance privacy protections for motor vehicle operators and passengers. Specifically, it mandates that manufacturers of new motor vehicles equipped with in-vehicle cameras must disclose the presence of these cameras to both operators and passengers at the time of sale or lease.
This legislation seeks to ensure that individuals are aware of surveillance devices within their vehicles, thereby safeguarding their privacy rights. The bill does not include any deletions from current law but introduces new requirements for manufacturers regarding the disclosure of in-vehicle cameras.
