Cameras inside the cab that watch the driver.

Insurance Companies own the American People...Welcome to the USSA...Here is your new number so please fall in line..

 

Have a rational conversation with the boss, don't get all emotional, explain how it would negatively impact your work performance. Being watched 24/7 tends to do that. If the higher ups will not be accommodating, and cite insurance reasons, let it go. Bring the topic back up in a week, and keep on at it until they know that you will keep on pestering. Basically, go kinda passive aggressive on it...

 

If it only records when tripped by hard braking, etc. then just cloud the lens w/ some colored nail polish.
They won't be able to prove you did it unless it was recording.
Your mileage [and job tenure] may vary!

Companies have had black boxes for years.
Many were setup to down load any time a company terminal fuel nozzle made contact.
Provost would question the Canadian driver on layiover in NJ why the moved the truck on Sat nite close to 'closing time'...wanting to know if they had been drinking and drove the truck back to the motel.
The stripper bar was on the opposite side of Route 9, too dangerous to walk!

 

Once they purchase the cameras, there is no chance in getting rid of them in this economy. I would state whatever you want to say before the purchase, because afterward they are here to stay. If they bother you that much I'd look for another job.

 

They record all the time, or they would not capture anything. If there is an event it will mark that file so it will not record over it.

 

Are some of you blind.?..This is all about LIABILITY and LAWSUIT PROTECTION..This is a form of protection for the big company owners pocketbooks..

This was a good idea at one point.Then it trickled into ''driver privacy issues''..That's the real problem here.All you have to get is some over zelous saftey jerk off to infringe on the drivers privacy.That is where the problems started with the camera on board.


I wish they would just FIRE us all and put robots in these trucks and save many people alot of B/S...

 

Make sure you wear your seat belt, or "claim faulty equipment" on pre-post trip inspections.

 

Don't take your hand off the wheel to pick your ### either..

 

Unless I'm a bus driver, I will "Not" allow a camara being pointed on me all the time I'm in my truck.
