With All-Connects' driving style analytics solution, fleet managers can finally monitor and compare their drivers' driving behavior. Using that data, they can create action plans. Not only will the number of accidents decrease, but so will fuel and insurance costs.
Driving style analysis: how exactly does it work?
All-Connects enables driving style analysis using track and trace technology. This is how we operate:
- We place a gps tracker in your commercial vehicles.
- While driving, the tracker records your drivers' various actions and maneuvers.
- The tracker transmits the recorded data to the overall system.
- Fleet managers and business owners can view the data in real time via an application on their smartphone, tablet or PC and quickly gather the insights needed to make adjustments where necessary.
All possible parameters for data recording of driving behavior
The system takes into account all kinds of parameters, since a driver's driving behavior is much more than just the speed driven. Among other things, the tracker records :
- the sharpness of turns the worker takes,
- The way he or she brakes,
- The speed that the driver maintains,
- The number of revolutions he or she makes,
- The way the person pulls up,
- ...
Fewer accidents due to coaching driving style
A commercial vehicle accident can be problematic for a company. Not only for the employee who may have suffered an injury, but also for a fleet manager. For example, the company vehicle and work force may be out of contention for a while.
Do you suspect that one or more drivers are daredevils on the road? You can now demonstrate and discuss this with the driver(s) involved without discussion thanks to the analysis of received data on driving behavior.
Last but not least, you can adjust your driving style in a timely manner. Consequently, the risk of an accident decreases dramatically.
Of course, driving behavior is an accumulation of automatisms that the employee is often not even aware of. If the driver sees his driving behavior translated into statistics, it can be enlightening.
Moreover, even while driving, the system can alert the employee to risky driving behavior. If he exceeds a certain parameter, the system notifies the driver in real time with an alert.
Decrease in fuel costs
Many (transportation) companies choke on fuel costs. As a result, it is a concern of many fleet managers. We probably don't have to tell you: the way you drive affects the fuel consumption of a company vehicle. Consider :
- revving too high,
- braking and accelerating too often,
- running the engine at a traffic light or level crossing.
You can easily and clearly derive that kind of driving behavior from driving analysis statistics. Notice that a driver is not driving economically? Then make him aware of that. Fuel costs will drop significantly.
Possible discount insurance
Several insurers like to work with companies that invest in ecological and safety measures. They therefore offer significant premium discounts. A driving style analysis system from All-Connects - together with our ecodrive solution - is a surefire way to lower your insurance premiums.
Based on the statistics, the insurance office calculates a premium tailored to your employees' driving habits.
