Navigating dash cams: A guide for union engagement

Public agencies are increasingly using dash cam technology to mitigate risk, reduce costs, and build community trust.


However, dash cam implementation isn't always simple. Unions and drivers often express concerns about privacy, potential impacts on morale, and the use of footage in disciplinary actions. While these are understable concerns, proactive engagement can help—Together for Safer Roads research indicates 70% of drivers accept all forms of in-cab technology with the right change management.


Inside this guide, you'll learn how to:


  • Prepare for conversations with unions and drivers
  • Build trust and buy-in
  • Create a clear and fair dash cam policy
  • Answer common questions, and more
