Four obligations, four records, none of them kept by hand

Chain of Responsibility, fuel tax credits, fatigue management and digital inspections. Each one replaces a record the fleet currently keeps by hand, and every one is answered from the same platform.

The fleet

What goes on each asset

Four kinds of asset in a transport fleet, four different ways of reporting, one platform behind them.

Battery units report on a schedule rather than continuously. Hardwired units need a power source.

Why it helps

Your biggest risk is driving

Fatigue is a factor in 20% of fatal crashes in Australia, and being awake for 18 hours has the same effect on reaction time as a blood alcohol level of 0.05%.

Fatigue detection

Drowsiness and distraction detected in cab, with a warning the driver feels before an incident

Drive Buddy Fatigue

Footage both ways

Road facing and driver facing video, so an incident is answered rather than argued about

Clarity Edge Multicam

Coaching, not blame

Behaviour reported per driver, so a conversation starts from data rather than opinion

Compliance

What you have to prove, and what records it

Five obligations an Australian transport operator carries, and the record EROAD produces against each.

FAQ

What transport managers actually ask

Subcontractor vehicles and plant can be added, bringing all assets onto one platform for visibility and tracking. That also feeds the subcontractor activity a Chain of Responsibility duty asks about.

EROAD Locate works with most light vehicles and plant equipment using an OBD2 port, and a universal Y harness allows installation behind the dashboard while keeping the diagnostic port accessible. Assets without a port are covered instead by battery trackers such as ETrack Oyster3 and ETrack G70, which need no vehicle power at all.

Driver login is a PIN on the in-cab unit, so time behind the wheel is attributed to a person rather than a registration. Fringe benefits tax reporting is delivered on the Ehubo2 with no additional app and no mobile device management.

Yes. EROAD Locate collects ECM and CAN data, so you get engine hours, battery health, faults and maintenance needs, which is what machinery is serviced on rather than distance travelled.

An Ehubo2 picks up an ETrack Where Tag within 70 metres, and a Where Mini Tag within 25 metres. Metal objects and equipment emitting strong radio frequencies can interfere with the Bluetooth signal or block it entirely.
