Companies currently using driver cameras...

Hey Charlie Brown, what exactly do you think that Qualcomm and peoplenet system they money you with is hooked to??? Cell signals and the camera is feeding through it on monitored cameras and is perfectly capable of live feed. Even if it was all satellite run they would lease use from hughesnet or exede's system which again is perfectly capable of live feed. Learn the technology before giving advice. Now are they watching all the time...no but they can on a monitored system camera. I am not paranoid about it like some but I do know the technology and what it's capable of.

 

I don't believe it's about mistrust... If I had a big company I would do the same. It's about holding the driver to a high standard of professionalism... And it's good proof that you're not doing anything incorrectly in the case of an accident. I don't see it as an issue, monitor me, nothing to hide.

 

I absolutely agree, if they can't do their job then they need to find a different line of work, rolling down the road at 80,000 pounds takes a level of professionalism... I also believe however, every "starter" company should have them to help in training starters on their mistakes and helping them improve. Not that all starter companies would do that seeing that many are only starter companies because they're cheap and don't wanna pay the more experienced drivers what they're worth.

I do not believe that companies that require 2-5 years experience should have them, why would you need them with a driver that has proven themselves?

I understand your stance however.

 

You want to point a camera at me? Fine.....

The bad singing starts at 230 am.

Any REALLY BIG boogers I pull out of my nose will be displayed in close up, with graphic commentary.

The dirty limerick hour. Or two.

I will enter and leave the sleeper butt naked every day.

I will add studio lighting, and adjust the camera, so Safety can watch me clip my toe nails in Hi Def, then apply my athlete's foot cream.

Any nasty looking mole, pimple, or rash will be displayed on camera for evaluation by the Safety Department.

And finally, every morning I'll turn tail to the camera, bend over and spread 'em, and say, "HEY SAFETY! Is that a HEMORRHOID or a PEANUT? Whatever it is, I can't seem to get rid of it!"

 

No camera's at interstate distributor Inc yet but 63mph trucks who needs them

 

WWE has driver facing camera's?

 

Penske Logistics was testing them at the terminal I was at facing out and in.
