    Angle as in the direction the camera is pointed? I guess the company know what angle can't hurt them in court. I'm baffled by this. Touching it? My camera is mounted. The cameras companies put in trucks are mounted. Mine points forward. Many of theirs point forward and at the driver. The one's pointed at the driver can provide proof to the driver being distracted. Mine can only provide proof as to what occurred in front of me.

    Anyway, my truck, my camera.

    I put a few videos up different styles but I just don't have the narcissistic personality disorder to be good at it. the driving stuff I just used my dash cam but took to long to edited the way I wanted it.

    Instead of sitting in the driver's lounge telling everyone how great you are you can now make a video and post it to youtube! No offense to all you youtube truckers out there!!

    Most camera's on the market have a 170 degree view point....that makes getting a different angle out of a dash cam difficult at best

    Either way you will see these videos will become less popular especially with mega carriers
