    There is a system out there that is being marketed to trucking companies that can be turned on anytime from the dispatch office. Even the 3 minute cameras have 3.5 mg memory cards in them that can be downloaded to see the whole day:((

    Have you not seen American Pie and Speed? Those cameras were live action feeds to the whole internet.

    Thank You TruckinMotherTrucker! How is it an insult. If I'm doing my job and not doing something I shouldn't I could care less if a camera faces me. These camera's exonerate a driver more than they implicate one. They make a driver better just by reinforcing the do's and don'ts. They are not invasive. They are only triggered by an event such as hard braking or swerving. Don't believe the bull@#$# that a few spew about the camera being on at all times. They are not!

    I guess all the testimonies throughout the profession and this site alone are all liars? If you want a tearless retina to "exonerate" you then fine but people should have a choice in the matter. Plenty of people don't agree with you and they have a right to opt out.
     
    foggy Thanks this.
