    And this is why I don't work at ABF anymore. Five years of 24/7 70 hours a week grinding, begging with my log book for time off to somewhat have a life...garbage. Good money and benefits, but an absolutely trash lifestyle.

    I don't think management has time to sit behind a computer to thousands of drivers to see if they have a hard break.. also in the contract, states they cannot use the camera for disciplinary reasons

    I didn't mean that i just mean they are always on. Its impossible for the camera to be off then somehow record 5 sec before you hard brake.

    The way it works is companies that have cameras have them always on, but footage is only saved and flagged from a certain point before and after an "event". It's not as if they're "off" until an event and could not possibly have prior footage.
