Dashcam Data Management
Prevent dashcam data liability
By leveraging CNS’s Dashcam Data Management and corrective action training, trucking companies can take a proactive approach to safety.
The Importance of Dashcam Data Management
While many local trucking companies may not require ELDs for HOS management, they still utilize dashcams to monitor driver behavior and improve safety. However, simply having dashcams is not enough—fleet managers must actively manage and analyze the data these devices capture to mitigate risk, improve driver performance, and reduce liability.
Why? Because dashcam and ELD records can be used in legal cases to either prove negligence or defend against claims.
In the event of an accident, video footage can clearly show what happened, proving whether the truck driver was at fault or if another vehicle was responsible.
Dashcams help combat staged accidents (e.g., “swoop and squat” scams) by providing indisputable evidence that protects trucking companies from false liability.
Risk of Failing to Act
Failure to act on safety alerts and video evidence can create significant liability for trucking companies:
- Negligence in Safety Management: If a company ignores repeated safety alerts about a driver’s reckless behavior, it can be held liable if that driver later causes a crash.
- Legal Consequences in Litigation: Plaintiffs’ attorneys may use a company’s inaction against them, arguing that they had clear evidence of dangerous driving but did nothing to correct it.
- Data Preservation: FMCSA requires ELD data retention for six months, and dashcam footage should also be stored properly.
