Earthwave Technologies popular FleetWatcher telematics platform monitors four key “safe driver” metrics, allowing companies to track and amend driver behavior. This GPS based platform captures vehicle data from either the FleetWatcher App or from an in-vehicle device. It simplifies safe driver programs by focusing on four key metrics: vehicle speed relative to posted speed limits, fast starts, hard braking, and hard turns. This data is reported continuously and can be used to assign a numeric or letter grade to drivers, who can then be commended or counseled for their performance. Whether required by insurance carriers or as company policy, FleetWatcher customers using this feature have reported significantly improved driver grades when this is added to their safe driver programming.
FleetWatcher users who have engaged in driver safety monitoring programs report significant improvements in driver behaviors, with fewer fast starts and stops, less hard braking, and more adherence to posted speed limits.
