You’re in a car and driving past that vehicle. If you don’t have your phone ready already, you won’t get it out in time and won’t be able to scan the code. You didn’t read the code and didn’t need to (because you weren’t rubbernecking).
You’re in a car with your phone already out (because you’re expecting a crash) or you’re a pedestrian who takes out their phone to film the crash site. You do read the code and you should see it, because you’re rubbernecking.
I was more thinking about not driving the car myself, but being driven as a passenger
Although it’s obviously a safety issue, when people turn away their focus to checkout a crash - no discussion about that - I was more thinking about the ethical issue of gaffing at injured people
I believe this should work. At least some German emergency vehicles now come with filming protection.

I actually would really like to know, what it says and would make myself punishable by that
But I think, it looks so inviting to scan it…
