    If the safety director clearly said these things are to turn on only for hard brakes, hitting the dock hard etc, then isn’t it illegal if the camera starts recording literally when you put your turn signal on, four ways, changing lanes....

    Did you just have them installed? I think some cameras can be adjusted to different levels of sensitivity. We had a couple weeks where there was a huge increase of videos recorded of guys just going over railroad tracks, turning into driveways and accelerating and braking. We complained to the safety manager and after a couple weeks it went down to the usual numbers/kinds of videos.

    Is it recording or maybe it lights up when it does an upload?

    Lol babysitter was added recently ... 6 months ago... actually didn’t go off when someone pulled out in front of me out of their driveway and I t-boned them, so they took it out for repairs and 5 months later it’s back in ... today it starts recording when I turn on my blinker

    It’s for sure recording
    if it’s only for the purpose of abnormal movements and heavy braking ... how is it ok?
