A commercial vehicle accident is often not only a human tragedy, but also a nightmare for business owners and fleet managers. Thanks to the track & trace solution from All-Connects, you can analyze and adjust the driving behavior of your employees. This way, you significantly reduce the risk of an accident.
Causes of accidents
Tens of thousands of accidents happen every year in Belgium, and you often see the same causes recurring. And we are talking about alcohol, phone use and fatigue. But above all: speed and dangerous driving behavior.
The faster the driver drives, the higher the risk of an accident and the more serious the consequences. After all, by driving too fast, you reduce the stopping distance. Also, at higher speeds, you need better driving control and sharper reflexes.
When your drivers combine high speed with risky driving, you get an even more dangerous combination. Unfortunately, it used to be difficult to verify that your employees were following the highway code and driving responsibly. Fortunately, that is different today.
Driving analysis
All-Connects offers you the possibility to analyze the driving behavior of your employees with a track & trace solution. For example, we place a tracker in your company vehicles. This tracker records various actions of your employees while driving.
Then the tracker relays that information to the overall system. Finally, fleet managers and business owners can view the data in real time in an application on a smartphone, tablet or computer.
That way, you can adjust your employees' driving behavior in a timely manner. After all, you can easily pick out the daredevils among your drivers. So the application significantly reduces the risk of an accident. Besides, driving is an automatism. A driving behavior analysis may have a clarifying effect on your drivers.
Parameters
You can set various parameters that the track and trace system takes into account. For example, the tracker can check whether the driver:
- adheres to the speed limit,
- brakes too abruptly,
- takes too sharp turns
- or accelerates too violently.
Furthermore, your employee can even be made aware of his or her driving behavior while driving. If he has exceeded a certain parameter, the system can automatically notify him or her with an alert.
Moreover, there is the possibility of connecting the tracker with mobileye technology for automatic detection of pedestrians and cyclists.
Possible discount insurance
Does your company use a track and trace system? If so, you may be able to get a discount from your insurer.
In fact, several insurance agencies are keen on customers who can demonstrate safe driving habits in black and white. And especially since a track and trace system can reduce accidents by as much as 50 percent.
Based on the recorded data from the track & trace system, the insurer can calculate a discount. That way, you pay a premium tailored to your employees' driving habits.
Decrease in fuel costs
Transportation and logistics companies often struggle with high fuel costs. You can reduce these costs by as much as 5 to 10 percent by analyzing your employees' driving behavior with the track and trace system.
For example, you can avoid them revving too high and changing gears too late. Or leaving the engine running at a traffic light.
