4 hours ago
- The USPS is piloting a program to install dashcams in mail trucks to scan roads and improve community safety by collecting data.
- Cameras, supplied by Next Base, will be forward-facing and record video without audio, focusing on roads, signs, and sidewalks.
- The pilot involves 100 trucks in the Washington, DC area, starting September 21, and will last several months.
- Privacy safeguards are in place, and the data may inform future decisions about nationwide deployment.
