  • Quickly browse recordings using visual snapshots to understand what’s happening at any moment before placing a request. 
  • Request videos with greater precision, without needing to review entire footage. 
  • Seamlessly switch between Driver, Road, and Aux camera views to get complete context and improve video request accuracy. Each view can also be rotated for optimal viewing. 
  • Minimize back-and-forth, saving time and enabling quicker access to critical footage when it matters most. 

Navigation: 

  1. From the SafetyCam main page, navigate to Request Video(s). 
  2. In the Select Vehicle panel, search or scroll to choose a camera that is online or in standby mode.
