Commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers need to maintain communication while on the road, whether it to talk to their employers or fellow drivers. While communication is integral to the job, it’s crucial to do it in a safe manner.
While many drivers use standard cell phones, it leads to distracted driving, which puts them and other motorists at risk.
In addition, Governments across the United States and Canada have been introducing new legislation to penalize this dangerous behavior. As a fleet owner, your company can now be charged directly if one of your drivers is caught distracted driving. In addition to heavy fines, this could cause your insurance to become more expensive or even dropped altogether. Source

When newly appointed Bastop ISD Chief of Police/Director of Safety and Security Scot Bunch arrived on the job, one of his first priorities was to learn about the school’s security system. He was pleased to learn BearCom had been selected by the team for their expertise to provide a state-of-the-art surveillance system.
Surveillance cameras had been installed and operating in Bastrop ISD for years, but the security team at Bastrop recognized an upgrade was needed to maximize their efficiency. The outdated analog cameras in place were low resolution and had limited storage capabilities.
