Do your employees cringe at the idea of a GPS tracking device and In-Vehicle Cameras in their vehicle?

Some drivers may even threaten to quit if a fleet tracking device or camera is put in the vehicle, but if they’re not doing anything wrong, why would they be so upset? Even though drivers are some of the harshest critics of GPS vehicle tracking technology, they actually have a lot to gain.

Improve Fleet Safety, Lower Insurance Claims, all with a Fleet Camera System!

When a driver pulls out of your lot, most fleet owners rely on the honor system when it comes to driver safety. Fleet camera’s now make it possible to see that in person.

Fleet owners spend hundreds to thousands of dollars on driver safety training, only to find out at the scene of the accident, the driver was texting. Having the ability to ride along with your drivers can enhance safety programs and gives you the ability to maintain the advantage needed to improve the overall safety of your fleet.

·         Pros: New Fleet Camera systems provide another level of safety and training that GPS Fleet Tracking cannot do alone: training and policies implementation, lower insurance rates, and a reduction in frivolous insurance claims

·         Cons: The biggest concern regarding a fleet camera system is if there is an accident, and my driver IS at fault, we can be held accountable.

True as this statement may be, having the ability to see prior to an accident can show just how good or bad the driver was driving, no guess work. Was he following company policies? Was the training that your company provided, working? You will be able to verify and reduce drivers who do not follow company policies, prior to that accident with fleet camera systems.
Where would you find a system like this? Safety Track has been revolutionizing the fleet camera space for over 17 years. maybe it's time to take a look.

Live Streaming Video AND GPS Tracking in One Package!

In the world of Fleet Safety, many have gone the route of GPS Fleet Tracking or a Fleet Management solution to improve the safety of their fleet.
With increased cost of insurance, some have added a Fleet Camera solution, giving them the ability to "see" into the cab of the fleet vehicle. This can be a great addition to any fleet safety program, having indisputable video of an accidents.  Could save you $1000.00 in insurance claims.
So what if there was a new system out there that gave you the ability to "see" into the cab in real time, exactly what the drivers were doing, AND gives you full GPS tracking historical data, all for a few dollars more a month than you are paying for just a GPS fleet tracking system.
Impossible you say.  But no, we have found and demo'd such a system.
A company out of Michigan has been selling in vehicle cameras for about 8 years to fleets and businesses alike.

They decided to develop, build and sell the first, real time streaming video camera DVR system we've seen on the market.
With up to 4 cameras: we suggest one facing forward and one facing inward to start, and then, if needed, adding an additional 2 cameras. You could add one on the right side of the truck, to eliminate that blind spot. or maybe use on as a back up cameras. The choice is yours.




Monitoring plans start as low as $29.95 for video and tracking. Really $29.95.
We think they may have something here.
Something that may be too good to be true.

Taxi Industry: Increased Usage of Vehicle Cameras

Violence towards taxi drivers, theft, unruly passengers, high insurance rates, misbehavior from the taxi drivers themselves, and many more problems exist in the taxi industry. Who would of thought the solution to all of these problems could come in a small product, no larger than a bottle of soda.

The Taxi Camera from Safety Track provides peace of mind for taxi drivers and fleet managers in a multitude of ways.  Taxi drivers feel an increased sense of security when they know they'll have video, audio, and GPS evidence against any passenger that thinks he can steal, cause violence, or just run a muck in the vehicle.  This camera system is a large deterrence against crime simply because crooks see the camera hanging visibly from the windshield and they know all their actions and their face is documented and able to be reviewed at any time.  Crime in the taxi becomes a pointless endeavor.

Fleet managers might enjoy having a camera in their vehicles even more.  They're able to experience peace of mind knowing that any misconduct whether by passengers or their drivers is well documented and provides indisputable evidence in the event of any scenario.  Additionally, a surveillance camera in the cab puts a little money back in their pockets every time the insurance bill is due.  Increased safety, cost efficient, and favored by managers and drivers makes this product almost too good to be true.
