Possible explanation for OD, our 2018 tractors are equipped with collision mitigation systems, and those have outward facing cameras that trigger when the system activates. There was a big to-do with the new Freightliners popping off false crash warnings so safety was, maybe still is, reviewing each video to identify the problem and fix it. Perhaps that was what the friend was referring to? I know the old grandpas at my barn are mystified by this new voodoo technology and are therefore distrustful of it.

Lol! They turn it on any time they want to. I know many drivers i speak to on docks say they get called all the time. About what there doing wrong in a truck. Cams facing the driver is a slap in the face.

What IS rubbish is the notion that you will prevail in a lawsuit against a company using driver cameras.

With dash cams and internet stalking truck drivers become battered women.

That's the first I've heard of it. Asked my safety guy and he hadn't heard that either. @sdaniel? Not saying you're wrong, but even trusted friends tell lunch counter stories sometimes.

Apparently they're being provided by Freightliner but OD has no intention of activating them unless the FMCSA requires it at some point in the future. They're also integrated into the peoplenet tablets, I guess its to make taking pics of damaged freight and accidents easier for the P&D drivers. So no road facing cams or driver facing cams will be active.
