Documentary filming of an interview while the interview subject is driving is only permitted if the cameraperson is secured in a seat belt and is not directing the driver of the car in any way, besides engaging in a conversation in which the driver/interviewee has been informed not to look at the camera or the interviewer at all during the interview.  In addition, any filming from a vehicle, for drive-by B-roll, must be done by a cameraperson secured in a seat belt, where the driver is not being directed in any way by the director, so that they are driving as they normally would.  As noted above, any documentary student planning on filming in any vehicle must submit a safety plan to their course instructor and the RTF Technical Facilities Manager.

REPORTING
If Police, Fire, or EMS are called to your shoot, or any injuries on your shoot require medical attention, this must be reported to your instructor and the Assistant Director of Production Services, (Keefe Boerner Keefe.Boerner@austin.utexas.edu), within 24 hours of the incident. There is a form in checkout and on the RTF website that must be filled out and returned within three business days.
