Turn your sound down; those dang cameras have pretty good receiving speakers.

These things watch us all day long. They don't bother me anymore, but it is interesting to see the things that will set them off in one truck and won't in another.
This one I was a mile or so from the warehouse. Empty and done. Saturday traffic, at the point where two freeways split off to their own ways. The guy in the lane next to me apparently thought he needed over IN FRONT of me pretty badly. He cut me off; which is no big deal normally, it happens all the time, but this time he also slammed on his brakes as soon as he got in front of me.
Honestly, I wasn't sure if we connected until he sped back up and pulled away. He's so close that my supervisor couldn't tell what happened, he couldn't see the guys brake lights even.
The video is in my file now, DrivCam said I was following too closely (I think they called it at 2.75sec) but my supervisor said he wanted to get it in my file because it's labeled " avoided and unavoidable accident"
