Commercial Dashcams

Forward-facing dashcams have become close to standard equipment on the long-haul side of U.S. trucking; inward-facing systems and the driver-monitoring features layered on top of them are deploying more slowly and more unevenly. This topic gathers Recorder Logs coverage of how the equipment works, what data it captures, what retention practices look like in the industry, and how the footage interacts with the post-incident preservation framework discussed in our accident reconstruction coverage.

The privacy questions associated with continuous in-cab recording are covered in our continuous monitoring piece and through the state biometric statutes referenced there.
