My guess is different schools have different policies. We don't have the manpower to check them at random. Although that doesn't mean it never happens. Your state inspector is not going to be doing that either. Without a warrant that would be against the law, the big one called the US Constituion!

Are you saying that state inspectors don't check them cameras, or they need a warrant to do so? If they typically don't check them, then who does?

I'm talking content for a warrant. As far as functionality, our state doesn't have anything to do with them. I take care of that periodically. Ours are meant for discipline only and the driver doesn't have access. We see it as protecting the driver. If a parent finds out the driver has access to the camera there could be all kinds of accusations thrown around. I wish we didn't have to have them. The times demand them though.

I would say it's a pretty safe bet that the overwhelming majority of bus cameras only get checked for footage when something needs to be checked - usually based upon reports from someone that something is going on that shouldn't be.

To pay someone (or multiple someones) to sit in an office all day watching endless hours of normal, routine bus footage would be a gigantic waste of resources.

My cameras get checked for proper operation at each PM, and that's about it.
