    Some driver on a dedicated account, just had a message from his DM to come and look his video feed of him drinking a bottle of water, while this interview had no relevance on his driving record, it was still a concern from the driver that Drinking or Eating while driving is illegal, eating may be reasonable but drinking water ?, Do we have to stop to get a sip of water every time ?, now we know that they are always watching you, any doubts ?

    I had a safety meeting with my DM a few months ago. When she was talking about the drive cams, she said nobody cares if you're eating a bag of chips while driving. I call BS. Sounds like an overzealous DM or FM.

    But.... but.... but.... DriveCam only records when you have an event! All the supporters tell you this! They can't just watch you when they want! Too much bandwidth!

    If every driver would simply refuse to drive a truck with them then the companies would do away with them.

    Then the Republicrat traitors would call for emergency work visas for the huge "driver shortage".

    Obama is a Democrat; he's been in charge for the last 8 years.I know 2 people making $50K on H1-B visa's during his watch. There's 10's of thousands more also. Political party affiliation has nothing to do with those visas.
