I recently read an article in the Victorville Daily Press that caused quite a few comments. I was surprised at how vehement people feel about privacy vs. safety. My daughter was killed in an accident exactly 23 years ago the day this article appeared. There is no way I can tell you the pain and emptiness that comes from failing as a parent to have protected your child’s very existence, and I truly hope none of you ever have to experience that. The goal of the camera is not spying at all; I also happen to find that intrusive and over-reaching. The goal is prevention. All behavior is patterned and repeatable and if you see your driver doing something that invades 12 seconds of their privacy but is a teachable moment to break a bad habit that will someday kill them, then the tradeoff is a no-brainer.
