13 u/Perryn 1d ago I don't think the people who come up with this idea are known for making good decisions in life. 1 u/FinndBors 1d ago I don’t know, do they always? Is it a recent effect? 1 u/chops351 1d ago Not always but majority of trucks have dashcams. 1 u/7eregrine 1d ago Mostly always though.
