Shooting on/near Streets and Roadways
Last Updated:
- Shooting on any public street, thoroughfare, road, highway, or freeway, or near enough to any such roadway to present a “distraction and/or disturbance” is prohibited by local, State and/or Federal law without the proper permits and safety procedures.
- Filmmakers are never empowered to control or direct traffic in any way.
- The law prohibits anyone other than authorized personnel from controlling or limiting the natural flow of pedestrian or vehicular traffic on a public thoroughfare. Having a Production Assistant or an AD control traffic for a shot is unsafe and illegal. Budget for adequate police assistance if necessary.
The article below illustrates the hazards of ignoring this policy.

FILM STUDENT CRITICAL AFTER TRAFFIC ACCIDENT
By Margo McCall Staff Writer
Antelope Valley Press
LITTLEROCK – A Los Angeles film student was struck by a dump truck Monday afternoon after venturing onto Palmdale Boulevard to stop traffic to allow filming.
Jonathan Rosen, 27, was reported in critical condition at Antelope Valley Hospital Medical Center with a broken leg, pelvis, and foot and internal injuries, a hospital spokeswoman said Monday night.
California Highway Patrol officer Charles Gilliard said the group from Los Angeles based American Film Institute did not have a permit to film.
