They don’t. Ask the camera a question then proceed with hostile witness preparations. Before you know it the camera gets thirty days in this stupid world.

The evasion of the hearsay rule is serious bidness, and sufficient reason to demand that these things be removed. Even if they did reduce accidents. Which they don’t.
