Unsafe Driving Behaviors and the Impact of Telematics
The moment your wheels hit the road, you’re not just moving freight—you’re generating data that shows how you drive, where you go, and how safely you operate. That’s the power of telematics. With GPS, dashcams, and onboard sensors, fleets can now track speeding, hard braking, distracted driving, and more in real time. This training series will show you what behaviors are being flagged, why they matter, and how to correct them—because safety isn’t about getting written up, it’s about stepping up. You’re in control of what the system sees. Let’s use that to drive smarter, safer, and with professionalism.
