Yes, but it's because they don't want to get into any disputes about it, not because it's blanket illegal across the entire EU, which is what you said.

Clickbait about the GDPR doesn't change that. If there is an actual case based on that legislation I'll obviously update my views based on how it goes, but right now what you posted is very misleading.

Yup. The law may not even be about the resultant image, but rather that the act of taking it could constitute harassment if you were up in someone face taking pictures after they asked you to stop and tried to walk away, for example.

Yup, it was at the mercy of the air at the point. The car slightly rolled to the left so the air pressure pushed it that way.

Wind resistance and lift from the force of speed.

It'll never be an issue if you drive on residential roads at legal speeds.

But when cars are racing the physics is basically completely different.

UK has (some) actual proper protections against corporations doing whatever they want, so buying your way into a bunch of 'free' advertising is indeed illegal. This is a big part of why WalMart got reJECTED when they tried to set up in Germany:
