countries and situations. Vehicles
equipped with the PDR System are
intended for use on private tracks
only and may under local laws and
regulations be restricted or
completely excluded from use in
areas accessible by the public,
such as public roads. It is your
own responsibility to ensure
compliance with applicable laws
and regulations, including but not
limited to privacy laws, laws
related to camera surveillance and
recordings, road traffic and
security laws, and laws on the
protection of publicity and
personality rights. You may need a
permit, license, or other approval
from local authorities in order to
comply with applicable laws and
regulations.
. Do not use the PDR System if this
could distract your attention from
traffic or entail other risks.
. Do not rely exclusively on camera
footage for steering the vehicle.
. Comply with any notice and
consent requirements before
capturing and/or recording the voices or images of other persons
or collecting other personal data
with the PDR System.
. Notify other drivers of your
vehicle of the above rules and
require them to comply with them.
. General Motors does not accept
any responsibility or liability in
connection with an impermissible

within the vehicle, including any
conversations among vehicle
occupants. Hidden recording of
