I mean the camera that supposed to be facing us that’s taped up is connected to the Samsara . But if you don’t have that camera facing device in your truck your Samsara will not work in that truck
That's interesting.......
Looks like Samsara has a fantastic salesman......
Anybody have any sort of word on how the negotiations about driver-facing cameras are going? If Ernie and Co. remain in Solidarity against surveillance technology,......that would be in the member's best interests,...for a change.
The news reporting about Facebook, Alexa/Amazon, and intrusion into private lives keeps growing weekly........As long as the trucking industry was able to keep driver personal surveillance...under the (non-Union..) radar......no one seemed to notice how "Big Brother"ish the trucking industry had become....
But, a big Union ruling,...either "for" or against driver-facing cameras will have large implications,.....Fourth Amendment-wise,...and future employment-wise. I'm sure that instructors in truck driving schools aren't telling students that,....the rest of your life will be on camera,...so we can fire you at will, by self-incrimination......
Yeah......right.
That ought to really boost applicants for truck driving jobs......Can't you just see hordes of new-hires begging to have their personal lives picked apart,....even while (potentially) in the sleeper bunk?
All to satisfy the company lawyer's quest to avoid any sort of company liability.......
Not "Safety"........in fact,...I think drivers should call "BS" on that company claim right now....This is all about company avoidance of liability,...by potentially calling even the ....smallest....action of the driver into question.....
That is a Trial Lawyer's Wet Dream,.....In front of a Jury,.....To portray the Driver as an evil stupid redneck bent on destruction.....
And the Company walks out of court......Liability Free........
