Vehicle safety and camera expert Durite has teamed up with Webfleet for an integrated video telematics solution that can streamline compliance, safety and operational management for commercial vehicle fleets.
Durite already offers a range of vehicle cameras – it says it was the first in the UK to offer a Direct Vision Standard-compliant ‘all-in-one’ camera system while its line-up also includes an HD DVR kit for trucks.
Durite’s vehicle camera systems now integrate with Webfleet telematics, meaning that fleet managers can remotely access camera footage from the Webfleet portal. This includes the ability to download first notification of loss (FNOL) videos.
John Nobbs of Durite said that seamless integration with Webfleet gives fleet managers an enhanced view of driver behaviour and road traffic incidents.
“It improves relationships with insurance companies and enables fleet operators to make more informed decisions about safety,” he outlined.
The technology will be showcased at the Road Transport Expo, taking place at the end of this month at NAEC Stoneleigh, Kenilworth, Warwickshire. Visitors will be able to see Durite’s DVS Safe System with integrated GPS speed trigger and on-screen display. This uses a traffic light warning system to alert the driver to vulnerable road users who are close to the vehicle. It also provides the specific location of the road user, making it especially relevant for fleets with urban delivery and collection operations.
It’s the latest development from Durite, which has been supplying vehicle cameras for more than 20 years and has supplied more than 50,000 systems to operators across the UK. The company also holds ISO 9001 accreditation and is a FORS Associate Supplier, as well as a member of SMMT, FTA and CEA member with an ISO9001:2015 accreditation.
At this year’s Road Transport Expo, Durite will also display its latest 360-degree camera system with 3D technology. This monitors areas of potential danger during specific manoeuvres of the vehicle, making it ideal for construction vehicles, tippers and tankers.
