    The cameras have both implicated and exonerated drivers at Conway/xpo. One case, two left turn lanes. Our driver in outer lane. 1/2 ton on the inside, cuts off our driver to get to a drive thru. Our guy hits him. Charged with improper lane change, and dangerous driving. Police review footage, cancel tickets and charges, drop the hammer on the driver of the 1/2 ton.

    Two sad cases of suicide by truck. Footage cleared the drivers. Thankfully only emotional damage.

    Driver claimed other car ran red light, and he t-boned it. Footage showed him texting and didn't even look up before impact.

    Cameras can go both ways.

    Mesilla Valley Transportation put in cameras and lost drivers. New drivers walked out of orientation when informed truck have cameras so they took them out.

    Why not just the Company's that have them, why all the opinions? MISUSED THREAD SPACE!

    Absolutely spot on! That is the only reason for these cameras. All these holier than thou drivers who try and validate their use will have a rude awakening when they are used against them. All of us can be incriminated when we are being watched at all times. Something as meaningless as drinking from a soda can be classified as distracted driving.

    Q Carriers/Quiring Trucking has them in their trucks for their company drivers. Not sure about the lease trucks.

    Had to reply to my own post, could not edit it, had to add that I'm sure there lease trucks have camera's in them, it's there equipment, it's the O/O'S I don't know about.
