    I forgot about onboard cameras probably cause I don’t have one.. but you know what I heard a lot of companies lately are just going to the outward facing cameras, or no cameras at all; especially the mega carriers, because insurance is a backfire on that expense to not only install maintain but safety to babysit and becoming way too expensive with lawsuits and being found guilty in court with accidents and events. Also, I heard that a Driver manager or fleet manager from somewhere was on some peeping tom creep BS with female drivers.. like a weirdo saving videos and watching them.. I forget which company that was…

    exhausted at the moment while writing this, either I’ll remember or someone in here knows/remembers but there’s probably tons of incident's honestly

    I think it was K&B transportation who lost a multimillion dollar lawsuit from an accident removed cameras entirely. TMC lost a couple lawsuits from bad accidents and driver privacy thing, I don’t think it was like sexual harassment with TMC I think the problem was office file sharing system where they were making fun of drivers, company office employee or manager threw them under the bus so TMC switched to outward cameras altogether like cut the BS in the office lol. Truth is they should be finding next delivery for the driver rather than clowning around. I think it’s Hirschbach or Decker Truck Lines, one of the refrigeration lanes got caught with the sexual harassment suit, not 100% sure
