I parked halfway on the sidewalk today, and suddenly a guy came along, pulled out his cell phone, and took a picture of the car.
I immediately yelled for him to stop doing that and stop (I was ca. 20 meters away), but he just walked on.
Are strangers allowed to take pictures of my car?? I think it starts.

You could yell as loud as you want, but
YES, HE IS ALLOWED TO DO THAT .
Even if it does not suit you in the stuff. Anything on publicly accessible non-private property may be photographed ( § 59 urhg). You hardly believe it, he may even publish it, he may make postcards of it and earn himself silly with it, he may have posters made of it. Only restriction – he must make the license plate unrecognizable.
If you don’t want it, no one can take a picture of you or your car. You have a right to your own picture (as long as it was not taken by a photographer and he keeps the right to the negative – but that’s something else)
What is different is when someone takes a picture of the area and your car is included in the picture. There is hardly anything you can do. But you can’t just come and take pictures of you or your car if you explicitly forbid it.
Do you have a paragraph? Is it really true that you can’t photograph a car??
Your answer was unfortunately unobjective and not substantiated, so you could not get the most helpful answer. So zero points.
Ragga, what you write is wrong.
Have you ever seen an expensive sports car on the street..? Yes?
Did you take a picture of him? (determined)
yes, he is allowed to take pictures of your car.
If he wanted to save a proof, he may also photograph your license plate.
Only publish (facebook, instagram) he may not with license plate.
Yes, the person should take a picture of your car, make the license plate unrecognizable and post it in the wegeheld app (which automatically makes the license plate unrecognizable and can also send a report to the public order office) and otherwise file a report with the photo. You can leave your car in the garage next time, there is enough junk in the city. Thanks.
Every citizen has the right to report crimes or misdemeanors, as well as provisional arrest with simple force (detention). To preserve evidence, filming or photographing with a cell phone is also allowed.

I live for almost ten years at the same address, a cul-de-sac with a turnaround ramp. Here until now was always parked on one side of the road, on the other side half on the sidewalk. There is neither a prohibition sign, nor one which permits parking here so.
A few years ago, the housing cooperative in charge of the area had parking spaces created for residents for a fee. These are also used, but the parking situation has not improved in spite of all this.

Now to my question. If I now still park so, ie half sidewalk half street and get a parking ticket, can I go against it because of the common law? Or can I even continue to park like this without being prosecuted if I invoke the customary law?? Until yesterday, the type of parking in our street was so permitted, or tolerated.

Hello, I got a parking ticket today. I parked my car on the side of the road. These are marked parking spaces, where you park half on the sidewalk and half on the street. From the street I was standing with the rear tire exactly on the mark that indicates the end of this parking strip. There is a zigzag line behind it. However, there has been no driveway or anything behind it. Only the entrance to the park and 10 meters further only the driveway. Was about 5 minutes with my dog in the park. When I parked my car there was no politician in sight. So she can’t say that I left my car for more than 3 minutes. Is it permissible? I have taken a photo. Hope you can help me!
Today I was by chance at the window and saw how two officials from the regulatory agency, my car from the front photographed. My car was properly parked in front of my garage. Until I was outside, the officers were already gone. I have also photographed my car to prove that I was standing correctly, in case that they want to accuse me of something. May make the photos in private and without cause?

Shouldn’t it be "against the law"? hot?
I had parked in bochum in the city center on a sidewalk, which was approx. 4 meters wide is (in the pedestrian zone but until then freely passable). Everything is always parked there, and we all got a ticket for violating §12 of the stvo. In this § is nowhere that the parking on sidewalks is prohibited. I understand that you can not park on a 1m wide sidewalk, but on a 4 meter wide where no one is hindered? I have not paid my knullchen and thus objection filed. Do you think I have a chance to get away with it, because a) no one was obstructed and b) it is not prohibited in §12?
I parked today by mistake on the curb so not half on it, but so that the tire is already along the curb and so I park also. Is that bad?
