The epidemic of distracted drivers and escalating claim settlements is having a large effect on the auto liability insurance market. Companies with fleets face constant exposure and should consider a telematics system that can assist in protecting employees, the business and putting underwriters at ease when they are pricing the program.
So what is a telematics system? The most basic definition is: a data collection system that makes your fleet’s activity visible to you as the fleet owner. This can include speed, hard cornering, hard braking, location monitoring and vehicle vitals.
Different system categories include:
– Cell phone apps
– GPS systems
– Standalone accelerometers and engine monitoring
– Video systems
– Driver Monitoring Services
If you are considering a telematics system to protect your business or your client’s business, it’s important to identify your goals.
