No law requires that. This has been litigated several times. Basically there's no expectation of privacy when you're using company property. They lose every time. Doesn't need to be disclosed, just common sense. Lots of places have cameras now, those don't need to be disclosed, you can usually see them when you look for them, but they do hidden cameras all the time when they suspect something. The only place you can expect privacy is the bathroom.
I agree. You are driving company vehicle, your boss has every right to track the use of company vehicle.
