While school bus cameras provide undeniable security benefits, there are concerns about privacy and legal implications.
- Privacy Concerns: Cameras must be used responsibly to ensure that students’ privacy is respected. Typically, interior cameras are activated only when the bus is in motion, ensuring students’ private time before or after the ride is not recorded.
- Compliance with Local Laws: Schools must adhere to regulations concerning surveillance, which vary by region. Ensuring the cameras comply with local laws and privacy rights is crucial for schools to avoid legal issues.
