re: Anybody drive a truck or work vehicle with camera inside watching you?

But to have a camera facing the driver and recording audio seldom would provide more context and evidence that would benefit the company.

There's a lot more going on than that. Most of these have accelerometers and some are hooked into the OBD to measure braking, throttle position, etc. The driver facing camera catches a lot more than just the driver. They can see out the drivers side window, and in a lot of trucks out the back in case you're rear ended. Additionally, most of the decent ones are using AI to identify drivers without seatbelts, using their phone, etc. to flag any unsafe drivers.

Employers are using them to watch their employees.

If anyone has time to pull and watch these videos there's a bigger problem. I'm sure it does happen but every fleet i know that uses them only downloads and reviews for accidents or egregious behavior flags.
