Inward cameras will not save lives or prevent accidents–PTC will. In fact the presense of inside cameras will make communication worse. No one will talk with fellow crewmembers on their train knowing the risk that anything said is being recorded. Condr will step over to eng and whisper in his ear and/or pass notes–just like we did 45 yrs ago in grade school. This is the culture and enviroment we have become glued into. It becomes worse as each yr rolls by. Thankfull just eight yrs of it to go.
