THE GOOD SAMARITAN. If I ever find myself in need of imagery post accident or even during, I will make sure I let the judge publicly know, an anonymous witness/ drone hobbyist provided the imagery. An unknown good Samaritan patriot with unknown 107 status just flying nearby recreationally flew over the accident scene, sending anonymous imagery. I didn't think of that scenario. If an anonymous hobbyist flies over an accident scene and provides imagery of it to one of the parties involved, the said hobbyist would be impossible to find or would not be worth the effort for the FAA to find such person..----Good Samaritan laws offer legal protection to people who give reasonable assistance to those who are, or whom they believe to be, injured, ill, in peril, or otherwise incapacitated
It has LONG been stated that a Recreational Operator can capture something during a RECREATIONAL flight that coincidentally has VALUE to someone else. For instance.... I can be flying RECREATIONALLY and capture something NEWS worthy.... happen to see an accident, incident, fire etc. That DATA (video, pictures etc) can be shared or even sold as long as the INTENT of the flight was purely RECREATIONAL. If this happens once or sporadically it's possible... but if this same "recreational operator/Good Samaritan" happens to be at several scenes/incidents then it's whole other ball game. Once again morals come into play and it may end up being you need to convince Judge/Jury of your true intentions.
Honestly someone helping out Emergency Services isn't going to be a big deal unless there is an INCIDENT. If something happens involving the UAS and the FAA is brought into the picture then your beef could become a case for the FBI and the US Attorney General's Office. The FAA can only levy Civil Penalties and revoke flying privileges. If the FBI gets involved it gets ugly and hairy in a hurry.
