Driver facing cameras in the cab

[Thebrownblob]

Correct. You just have to be told that you are being recorded.



While State laws vary, it is generally legal as long as you know you are being recorded by your employer in their vehicle.

You don’t even necessarily have to agree to it. Implied consent.

Can you refuse to being recorded? That will take lawyers and courts to decide.

Lots of Cowboys are walking off the job The day those go in there truck! They don’t care what the union says! Or the arbitrator!

It's garbage. I had a full size Bronco. That new ugly piece of trash is a disgrace.

79 and 93 owner.

I wish they had just gone with the 2dr excursion concept people were building.

You mean quitting.

Maybe the Union can keep the driver facing camera from recording.

 

[Non liberal]

You knew it was only a matter of time before camera's were installed. Why act surprised?

I have already seen some of the footage from them, some of your fellow drivers are doing some dumb stuff and I am not talking about rookie drivers either.

Go ahead and block the sensor...we need to get rid of a few drivers anyway. Make it easy for us.

What if I don’t identify as my self the day you catch me reaching for my coffee?

Yes it is. What did you think it was?



How can a sensor detect distracted driving? It's a camera that analyses your movements.



Yes it can, But will it? That is an option that has to be enabled.



Wow. You're amazing.

Yes, it does have the ability to record. Whether it is enabled is a different story. Even if it is, it cannot be used against you, at least not yet.

Holy unnecessary multiquote Batman!

Software setting changes aren’t hard to make. Making those inward cameras record is as easy as flipping a light switch.

I'm sure the Union will stop this the way they stopped the use of PVDs and stopped inflation from eating up our livelihood.

 

[Non sequitur]

I found the training manual here's the title of the book.

Easier to multi-quote than it is to reply to each individual post.

Yes, it’s easy to change the settings to have these cameras record. But your Center Manager cannot do this, Lytx has to do this, and you must be informed first if the cameras are to start recording.

At the moment, they do not record. We will find out what the Arbitrators ruling is, and what is negotiated in the upcoming contract.

So, if the cameras do record, I guess you should do it by the methods.

If they cant record, how do they create video for coaching with a sensor. Is this not a recording? Pray tell

Anyone thinking those things aren't already recording is a complete dupe.

I’ve seen some of the footage from your office . I didn’t know you could sit for so long with your thumb up your ass ! Don’t you wear your class ring on that thumb ?

They don’t create a video for coaching. The camera logs events, John Doe picked up his phone while driving at 0930.

There is no physical video to replay showing this action.

And it is not a sensor. It is a camera watching you. It just doesn’t record video or broadcast livestream.

It does have that capability though, if enabled.

Because it would be illegal to record you without telling you while you were in a place that you can expect some sort of privacy.

The cameras, like everything else at UPS, generate reports for management. What I am seeing where I am is that these reports are then generating notifications to ORS and Center Managers for who needs more frequent OJS rides, on road following, and "coaching" sessions. They have a complete list of all the drivers in our center and now it is generating frequency reports for how often they need to be followed up on. Some even shows monthly / quarterly / etc. "tasks" for ORS to do for certain drivers based on the camera feedback. This is BS. Topic for 2023 contract.

Just install smell-o-vision in my tractor already so I can give you the full experience.

What privacy can you expect in a package car? It’s not like it’s a bathroom. Cameras are everywhere.

Are you sure about that?
