I know!
Get a photo of you at distance running away, arms up, mouth open as if screaming while looking back, then tape that to the window infront of the lense..Roguefox, JolliRoger and TokyoJoe Thank this. -
I just learned that Swift's in truck cameras do record audio from inside the cab. They may not have driver facing cameras, but they do record driver audio. That's pretty awful.
-
I think we all knew they still record audio.

It is simply general audio, so don't get in a huff about it.
The audio comes from any camera in the truck, whether you or the company installs it.
Granted, you might have the option of turning it off with your own camera system.
A lot can happen in any incident and having audio can help. It can even help the driver. -
Saying that the audio can help the driver is not only factual incorrect it ignores the costs associated with it. Not only is audio WAY more likely to hurt a driver, even in a case where the driver is not at fault, but it wouldn't even be worth it if it could help. The price paid by the driver is way too high.
If you want more information on why this is so horrible for the driver, watch this video. It contains an in-depth explanation of why recording in-cab audio is incredibly, inarguably, and inexcusably awful for the driver:

Screw it, I’ll just purchase a 24/7 porn track and play it while I’m listening to music on my ear buds.

I won't get into a pissing contest with you. That went out of style in grade school.
born&raisedintheusa Thanks this. -
