Rumor is true the are installing them in indy. But not really cameras just a lane departure system no visual recording at all. Left of right in cab beep when close to zipper or shoulder.

I heard they were putting forward facing cameras in Cleveland tractors, starting with the first one installed on Saturday.?

The "lane departure systems" are a good thing guys. They have detectors on the sides of the cab and front bumper. When you are too close to the center line or the white line, you'll hear a vibration noise that alerts you to center your truck better in the lane. And they also have a detector for following too close to the vehicle in front of you. If you're tailgating, a beeper sounds off, letting you know that you need to increase your following distance. And some of the newer trucks will actually shut down if your are bearing down on a vehicle at too fast of a rate.
Don't be afraid of these lane departure systems........I think that they're a good thing since they will enhance your space and visibility for safe driving.
These bafoons cant affor
I'm sure they are nice. But for a company that continually cries poor, they are an unnecessary expenseThe "lane departure systems" are a good thing guys.

I agree. They've got better things to spend their money on.
Like maybe upgrading some of their rattle traps that are rolling down the road.

Of course they're for our our protection, They'll even provide you with a written "reminder" if you deviate.
Yeah they wouldnt want a driver to dent up a fender. They would rather it rust off on its own

All about cheaper insurance, if you ask me. That's why most carriers that have cab cams have them. Stuff like this is invading the insurance industry, with promises of cheaper insurance if you install recorders in your car and drive safely to prove you aren't a risk.
It's a scam waiting to happen, if you ask me. Anyone who 100% abides by all laws 100% of the time is a form of road hazard to those who do not, known as an obstacle. And if you're not a perfect driver, this junk will jack up your rates, guaranteed.

the problem with your theory is that all of the YRCW companies are self insured. They are responsible for the first 6+ million of cost in every accident, which is more than enough motivation to install these types of devices.

You get to a point that you don't even hear the beeping after awhile...and they really suck in the Mtns and curvy roads with guardrails ..beep beep beep beep beep....it's just a ploy to keep guys happy to keep a worn out International..LOLThe "lane departure systems" are a good thing guys.

Maybe they upgraded the buzzers?? I guess if they are that loud now, somebody will sue for hearing loss..lol
Either way, you DO become immune to it eventually and it becomes useless...it's like my buddy that lives right next to railroad tracks, he doesn't even notice it anymore
