The Source for Multinational Fleet Professionals
Government agencies may have distracted driving policies but enforcing them can be difficult. Training and in-cab technologies can help.
Merchants Fleet has recognized Fleet Response with its Supplier Excellence award this week for its track record of supplying safety services to the fleet management company.
While fleets are seeing some improvements in their crash and accident statistics, aided by better training and vehicle safety technology, there is still more they can do to not just be a number.
Fleet policy, driver training and education, use of both in-vehicle and telematics technology, and a review of repair processes and costs can all lead to substantial reductions in accidents and related costs.
There are times and situations when an ordinary day may turn into an extraordinary one, and having a telematics system can be the difference.
Accident costs saw a modest increase in 2014 vs. 2013 figures, with the percentage of preventable accidents remaining mostly flat, according to Element Fleet Management, The CEI Group, Corporate Claims Management (CCM), and Fleet Response.
Improved vehicle system quality and electronic diagnostic capabilities, such as OBD-II, have made managing vehicle maintenance an easier task for fleet managers versus several decades ago.
