When a company runs a fleet, one of the most important aspects of fleet management is fleet safety management which includes the systems or strategies to assure that fleet vehicles drive and operate to extend the safe and compliant usage of services. Good safety management not only can reduce the risk of accidents but also help with decreasing maintenance costs, and fuel use, and enhance the reputation of the company they serve.

TruckX’s fleet safety management solutions feature a host of driver tools such as automatic vehicle-location tracking (AVL) and live driver behavior monitoring that enables fleet managers to improve driver behaviors and ultimately reduce accidents. The advanced telematics and GPS tracking equipment used by TruckX allows managers to observe driving habits including speeding, harsh braking, and excessive idling, and use that data to provide useful feedback to drivers and coach them to drive more cautiously.

This also includes driver monitoring, a series of check-ins to verify the driver’s safety and health. Special sensors detect whether the driver is inattentive or fatigued. A well-maintained vehicle may not be able to avoid all accidents, but regular vehicle inspections, preventive maintenance, and automated service alerts can turn an industry into a dramatically safer one by preventing mechanical failure and allowing trucks to stay on the road.
