“Unquestionable control over their workers”? You serious clarke?
You’re being melodramatic. We are talking about people driving company vehicles, on company time, with company logos in many (if not most) cases.
The types of company vehicles I see with dash cams are not typically “perk” vehicles that someone is using to commute to an office. They’re normally larger trucks or vans that are hauling deliveries, tools, equipment, or personnel to and from customer locations. And “personal use” of these vehicles is often prohibited - largely because they’re mobile billboards that say “sue me!”
If you’re driving a box truck, flatbed, tow truck, etc. for work, then driving safely is quite literally one of your primary job duties. It’s a little silly to think companies shouldn’t monitor your performance of that job when the tools exist to do so. It’s no different than being supervised on a manufacturing line, or by a foreman on a construction crew. It’s a blue collar job like any other, and this idea of driving being some sort of sacred private time is precisely why companies feel the need to monitor it in the first place - because for some reason, people consistently show different driving behaviors when they’re being monitored.
