TruckX fleet driver safety is the prevention approach that minimizes the risk of accidents, citations, crashes, injuries, and deaths to drivers, vehicles, and cargo on board. At its broadest, fleet driver safety comprises an array of policies, procedures, and technologies meant to encourage and facilitate safe driving behavior and a compliant fleet.
These programs should be designed to monitor individual logs and track activities as well as how drivers behave on the road – including their speed, smoothness of braking, and acceleration patterns – which can all be monitored by telematics and global positioning systems (GPS) tracking systems. Fleet managers can see updated information as it’s happening so immediate and corrective actions can be taken. This data can be mined and analyzed by companies that can then train drivers in targeted ways to address any real safety issues, as well as promote safe driving.
TruckX helps prevent risky driving situations with real-time telematics and alerts when drivers engage in unsafe behavior. Our system integrates with ELDs to meet the US Department of Transportation Hours of Service requirements, helping to avoid drivers becoming drowsy behind the wheel – a common cause of traffic accidents. The platform also provides reporting features that enable fleet managers to track safety metrics as well as the effectiveness of safety programs designed to protect their operations and drivers.
