Transport firms are installing vehicle tracking to help safeguard their cargo and their customer base. Companies such as these are vulnerable to theft, as they often carry valuable products across the UK. Drivers are limited as to how many hours they can drive before having a rest by UK Health & Safety laws. This is measured by use of a tachograph.
When a vehicle is parked it is vulnerable to theft. Vehicle tracking can provide an alert via text or email to a predefined person if it senses an impact when the vehicle is stationary and the ignition is off. This can provide the means to stop the theft occurring or the tracking data can be used by the Police to locate the vehicle quickly, more often than not with the cargo still intact. Your driver will also be back on the road faster.
Vehicle tracking can also help transportation companies save money on fuel. The application analyses driver behaviours that cause the vehicle to perform in an inefficient way. The more efficiently a vehicle is driven the more fuel efficient it becomes. Individual driver training on how to improve their driving performance, with easy to manage targets may help your company to achieve a more fuel efficient fleet.
