Isotrak claims that camera integration helps to reduce speeding by as much as 97% and cuts accident rates by almost 80%.
The vehicle tracking and driver safety monitoring enhancement provides transport managers with high-resolution images that are date and time stamped for any point of the journey, and record whether the vehicle is moving or stationary.
The cameras integrate with Isotrak’s vehicle tracking and telemetry solution, providing telemetry data and camera footage to backup any claims made by the driver or dispute any claims made by third-party plaintiffs.
The detailed video images give a clear view of how a vehicle was being driven immediately prior to an incident, helping prove whether the driver was at fault or not. Fleet operators can also use the safety camera video to help them with driver training and to stop unsafe driving behaviour.
‘We have partnered with market-leading safety camera providers to provide a fully integrated solution that gives customers a real-time video view of how their fleet is performing right down to individual driver and vehicle level,’ said Megan Turner, head of marketing at Isotrak.
‘This is an important enhancement to the live vehicle location and telemetry we already provide and we encourage fleet operators to consider how integrating safety cameras with their Isotrak system could help them drive further improvements through their operation.
‘Video evidence is proving its importance in fighting claims, but even more importantly when coupled with Isotrak real-time vehicle tracking it can help fleet operators make significant improvements to operations and services,’ she added.
