Hi Daydreamer, this is one of the most asked questions since this discussion board was first established. We are aware that such a site would involve a lot of legal obstacles to overcome. Such as making sure that every vehicle had proper authority, insurance, and that the vehicle was really able to respond to the call with-in the time limit put out by the customer. There are also other considerations that create a very complicated situation, such as who bills who, and what does the customer do if the freight is lost, or damaged. Do they go after the regular carrier who couldn't do the run? Or the one who actually lost or damaged the freight. And what about customer poaching, where the sales guy is in trying to "turn " the customer on to their company, in stead of the original carrier. As you can see, it's not all that simple, is it ?

A live truck cam? jeez, don't use my E-350, it'd shake your camera apart
in less than a 100 miles. There's enough noise from that 7.3 diesel
at 70 mph to make me wear ear protection.

Nice working enviroment,huh?

Did I mention that the A/c was on the fritz too?

You'll have to use one of those nice new freightliner's for that cam, one with
a nice CAT engine.
