Fleet Safety - Easier Today Than Ever

If your fleet is the reason you are in business then it’s a fact that drivers are the public face of your company. Everyone has seen trucks with signs giving a phone number to call if the vehicle has a bad driver. But having some commuter call in to complain a driver put them at risk should be last thing that ever happens. With GPS tracking you can easily set up alerts to show up unsafe driver habits such as speeding, excessive acceleration and braking, driving at risk in snow or fog, or when a geographic location poses a risk to a driver like wildfires, mud slides, extreme weather and law enforcement events. You can do something about bad driving before anyone calls to complain. You get peace of mind knowing your vehicles are being tracked at all times, drivers are lot less likely to do things that would affect the whole company negatively, as well as their own livelihood.

Insurance is a necessity for any fleet. Your drivers aren’t the only people on the road, mother nature can make trouble, in short accidents can happen. Being prepared for that is a sure-fire approach to reduce risk and cost. In the event of an accident your tracking data can become crucial evidence in a claim. It can mean the difference between an expensive claim and legal hassles, or an equitable outcome. But for many fleet owners it is just the evidence of hours, weeks and months of safe driving by your guys that can keep your premiums low.

Maintenance is another factor that is better planned for than avoided. Any vehicle needs to be carefully maintained to remain cost-effective and profitable. Unexpected repairs can wreak havoc with the bottom line. GPS tracking can alert you to scheduled maintenance any way you like – by engine hours logged, time or miles traveled. You can track specific engine and drivetrain parts, make sure they get serviced and avoid catastrophic failure. All the alerts your vehicle would produce for a driver can be forwarded and acted on in real-time so you don’t have costly interruptions to your operation. Routine maintenance can be scheduled well in advance so you never have a day where all your trucks are in the shop at the same time and you’re out of business. Get the idea?
