dashcams, drivecams... does yours have audio?

Then you will get nailed for failing to check securement. Once you take the load it’s your responsibility to make sure it’s secured.

As I posted in another one of those threads, I wouldn't want a driver facing cam but just wipe a little grease on the lens of the driver camera if you’re that worried about it. Trucking’s a dirty job and they can not prove that the leas didn't get dirty by accident. The inside cameras are pointed at the driver from the center of the windshield, they will not see into the sleeper anyways.

There are a lot of different types of cameras out there but most record in a loop that varies depending on the size of the memory card they have for the general out the windshield video. Most also have some “protected memory” that will record events for when the G sensor gets set off (usually around 15 seconds prior to the event and 15 seconds after) for the forward facing cam and the driver cam if it has one and some have a park mode that will store events from a motion detector as well from the forward facing cam.

I only looked at a few that had driver facing cams when shopping for one but none of them recorded anything on the driver cam other than when a G event was recorded. I guess it is possible that there might be some that record more on a loop but why would they, do you really thing a company is going to pay someone to sit and watch drivers pick their noses?

 

Then I will film myself tugging on the strap and making sure the lock is clicked in place.

 

That would be what you want, but this is about dashcams and they do not record cargo, they look out the windshield with some having a second lens looking at the driver.

You could get a GoPro and point it anywhere you want.

 

I merely mentioned I would get something like that along with the dash cam

 

New to this forum couldn't figure out how to make a new post. Maybe u can help. I'm looking to put a dashcams n my truck. Looking at one by diesel boss multi camera dash cam u can go up to 4 cameras but I want 3 1 in windshield & the other 2 on outside mirrors there waterproof. Wonder if anybody has this camera & what they think about it pros & cons. Thanks Cris

 

As a new driver going into the industry in a few months from now I know my options are limited but no #### way in hell am I getting into a rig where I'm being watched constantly. I'll find another outfit

 

If I get a dash cam, they'll film me tugging on something pretty often in the truck.








That's a masturbation joke.
