    Sounds like Western Express in Nashville..?
    I know they got rated years back for moving "white powder". A bunch of drivers, dispatchers, mechanics spent time...
    I drove by when it happened, must have been 20 - 30 cars. DEA, FBI, STATE, CITY. The parking lot was lit up like a Christmas tree

    Well, that's a 'crying shame' but I doubt it's illegal..

    Sorry bout the late response.

    They were streaming me 24/7 from the tablet provided to me/my ELD. I thought it was the Lytx cam but it was actually the tablet and they did not tell me.

    No live-streaming me to watch me, not publicly.

    Than really it’s no different than a driver facing camera

    Not at all, driver facing camera is event driven. When the truck is parked the camera does not record audio or video.

    That’s not necessarily true know of cameras that that are not event driven It’s a easy to fix just put a piece of tape over the camera lens on the tablet Problem solved

    sorry but your wrong. It records 24/7.
    Think about it, how can it record the 4sec BEFORE an event..?
    All the event does is flag the time before and after for a manual review.

    They (3rd party company) can log into it (dash cam) and watch it live anytime they want
