    Good on ya. If more drivers had rejected the cameras and quit en masse - less companies would have pushed forward with them.

    Last I heard from a buddy, ODFL was having to back track on their policies with the stupid things.

    Good luck at the next gig.

    Truer word never spoken. There are countless companies without cameras. Quit your camera company today, unceremoniously and with the finger flying.

    Just for curiosity, the person that fired you, was that person from the HR dept? If not, how did they know that there was a call, asking about employment status? HR dept. personnel are supposed to keep all such inquiries, and conversations confidential.

    Which company cut out parts of their sun visors so drivers couldn't block the camera? Asking for a friend...
