    More often what I see is an elderly man traveling at 60 mph with a truck glues to his but, because idiot truck driver what to go faster than allowed, dont get me wrong, I think our speed laws in CA are to low, does not change the number of drivers I see right on the back of a 4 wheeler. And yes that makes you the jerk.

    Makes me the jerk...... Ok, Not to many drivers I know support the accident attorneys. The first time you get screwed by one you will be crying a different tune. And if your tailgating 4 wheelers knock it off, your making drivers look bad.

    I don't care one way or the other about the camera. If I hired someone to house or baby sit, they would be on camera. Why should a company truck be any different? A good company driver can work at almost any company. Don't like the policy? Don't hire on . . . it is that simple. No one should expect a truck owner to change their decision based on driver wants.

    I like being on camera. I might become a movie star. Move to Hollywood. Become a chick magnet. Maybe become rich.

    Edit: I meant to quote the other post :(

    Wouldn’t just the forward facing camera show the other driver was at fault?

    1) Quit.

    2) "Makes me?" Last I checked it's a free country.

    3). Quit the industry.

    Yeah but in this case YOU control it. Company drivers... not so much

    Quit lying man. People threaten to quit every time something happens in the industry. If that's all it takes to make you quit then you're mentally fragile.
