I believe you are mistaken, as HB2319 [0] itself directly states:

> The occupants of a vehicle that is the subject of a police stop may record the encounter if the occupants are not interfering with lawful police actions.

On a side note, I encourage everyone to carefully read the actual bill.

There's a lot of intelligent people here on HN but it seems that many of those commenting can't quite comprehend plain English (not as well as I would have expected, at least).

The issue generally isn't with the bill but how the police enforce it. There are videos all over the internet of police officers telling people standing near to stop filming them and threatening to arrest them for interferring with police business. Hell, there is one video of a police office crossing the road to do so.
