The problem in monitoring fleet driving standards is that drivers are ‘out of sight, out of mind’. Poor drivers can be relatively anonymous.- Technical solutions such as GPS or in-cab cameras are useful in tracking vehicle position or analysing incidents, but they cannot truly monitor driver behaviour.
- Identifying a problem driver from his or her accident record is not cost effective!
- Our reporting system uses other drivers as a resource to monitor driving standards and to report compliments, complaints and other information.
- The incidents and near misses they report are often potential accidents and these can build a risk profile.
