Yes no reply.seems to kind of answer my question. Have them on my very short list but if they have those driver facing cams they are a no go. I thought I heard they had outward facing only.

I am applying for trucking jobs now, I ask one questions that determine if I want to work for that company. I have turned down many of them because of cameras. I ask do you have cameras that face drivers. If the answer is yes to cameras, I say goodby.cjb logistics Thanks this. -

They are not always 'on' but the person/s on the other end can drop in anytime they want- safety incident or not.
Also, the video and audio they get can be stored and replayed on other devices, websites, Youtube, etc...arni Thanks this. -
I still depends on how each company uses them. Of course if it does catch drivers using hand held phones or going without the seat belt, they will be in trouble. To be honest, with the amount of stupidity I keep witnessing from the newer generations of drivers, if I owned a fleet of trucks I would put them in too.88 Alpha Thanks this. -

The pilots union has prevented cameras from being installed in plane flight cabins. And those feeds would only be sent to the black box in the event of an accident. And they don't live there. But they have many personal conversations and probably interactions with female flight crew personnel. Yet their audio is already recorded, just no video at this point.
No union discussion please. It's against the rules here. But if pilots don't have them I don't think truckers should either. -
It's just something else for the crybabies to cry about. As if they don't already have enough reasons.
We have the option to have our driver-facing cameras turned off as long as we behave ourselves. I told em' to leave mine turned on. Why? The chatter after pretty much every accident involving a truck these days includes "I bet he was playing around on his phone when it happened!" or something along those lines. The camera answers that question. -
Lonesome Thanks this.
