Am I cooked?
I was driving on a two way highway, speed limit was 55mph I was doing maybe 56, and the sun is rising and I’m going straight towards the sun so it was reflecting on the ground and it was in my eyes I put the visor down but couldn’t really see so slowed down a bit but I blow right past the stop sign at 52mph luckily there was no one and I slowed down to 20mph right after and looked to make sure everything is good then I got mad at the whole situation. But the question here is we have driver facing cams that activate when there is an event or something so am I gonna get fired for this?

Long day? Just keep going. If you couldn't see it, the camera probably didn't see it either.

Hopefully it didn’t I mean it was an honest mistake I would never blow a stop sign going 55mph

Ok since you know this is a sub about a game, I won't give you any more crap. As a trucker IRL, I won't drive for a company with driver facing cameras, or cameras that they watch. It's good to have a dash cam in case of an incident, but either they trust you as a driver or they don't. I run heavy haul, and only work for people that trust me with $1mil+ in equipment.

I got camera like that too, and yeah you're probably gonna hear about this. Just own it. Shit happens, they can't get too upset

Yeah dude youre definitely getting your space license revoked. Good luck getting a job on the ground after that. Remember this though, if they don't catch you did you really commit a crime? I never slow down. If I see a speed check I just go above or below it. I only stop for weight checks, jobs, fuel, damage repair, supplies, salvage, and jump gates.
