Improve fleet driver management with our driver tracking software and devices

Driver tracking software works by connecting with a vehicle’s data to evaluate driver behaviour and rule adherence.

Installing a driver tracking device can help you track and evaluate driver performance across your fleet. With Geotab you can leverage Geotab’s fleet tracking technology and easy-to-use MyGeotab software to improve driving behaviour with scorecards, trend reports, and innovative Add-In solutions for collision avoidance and to reduce driver distraction.

Driver scorecard reports that rank your fleet drivers according to their driving performance (across vital metrics such as events of harsh braking and acceleration) enable fleet managers to identify the drivers that are most in need of additional training and support, and which drivers deserve recognition for being the safest drivers in the team.

The data collected by the driver tracking device, together with any high-definition videos that are taken by in-vehicle cameras, can then make valuable driver training tools.

Finally, when drivers know that they are being tracked, it can often have an immediate impact on their driving style and behaviour, reducing the frequency of aggressive driving incidents.

Businesses are within their rights to track drivers during work activities, but any tracking device must be fitted with functionality to enable the driver to turn off the GPS tracking when necessary. Certain privacy standards must also be upheld when it comes to transmitting vehicle data.

Geotab’s driver tracking solutions come with a privacy mode that drivers can turn on when they are using a company vehicle for authorised personal use, and the MyGeotab telematics solution is fully compliant with the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

With Geotab, you can stay on top of day-to-day fleet activities, such as unsafe driving behaviour or when drivers enter or exit specific zones.
