    It’s mostly the larger carriers that hire drivers that don’t have experience and mostly the larger carriers will have the drive cams. If they pay higher insurance rates because of hire new drivers then they will try to lower that expense with the drive cams

    Chinatown gave you good advice with FFE. I have seen them in the past on the lists of higher paying companies.

    Sorry but driver facing cameras are something I'm not willing to put up with.

    Maybe some Swift drivers can clarify; did Swift shut off the cameras?

    Driver facing big brother cams, ridiculousness! Does Frozen Food Express equip those?

    Oh I would have still got into trucking. I would have just covered the cams up with tape.

    Luckily I don't have to do this. Excellent.

    No. At least the truck I am in does not and I’ve heard no talk of them.

    The training/student trucks do have a driver-facing camera.

    He will also have a place to park the truck on hometime in Chicago since FFE has a terminal there.
