Driver and vehicle safety for your fleet

Your drivers and vehicles are out of sight for most of the day, but your health and safety obligations go with them. EROAD helps you run a fleet safety programme that picks up risky driving and vehicle defects early, and keeps a record of the steps you've taken.

Support a safer driving culture

More Australian workers die in road incidents than from any other workplace risk, and a breach of health and safety law can bring fines, jail time and lasting damage to your business. You might have a speed policy and a pre-start routine, but without monitoring you can't tell if either is followed until it's too late. Vehicle defects are the same. If you're relying on a driver or contractor to speak up, a problem can go unreported until something fails.

What you'll be able to do

Deal with risk while it's still small, before it puts a driver or another road user in harm's way.

Pick up risky driving early

Spot the drivers who regularly speed or brake hard, and talk to them about it before it ends in a crash or a fine.

Keep unsafe vehicles off the road

Hear about a defect as soon as a driver reports it, so your workshop can fix it before the vehicle goes back out.

Show the reasonable steps you've taken

If a regulator, insurer or lawyer asks what systems you had in place, you'll have a record of inspections, repairs, servicing, speed events and footage to show them.

Get your drivers on board with safety

In-cab feedback shows drivers how they're going, and a star-rated leaderboard lets you reward the safest. Drivers are more likely to back a programme that has something in it for them.

How EROAD can help

Keep track of how your vehicles are being driven and whether they're fit for the road, and act before something goes wrong.

See speeding, harsh driving and seatbelt use

Overspeed reporting shows which vehicles are regularly over the limit and where it happens. Driver safety reports show whether your policies are being followed.

Driver performance and coaching

Feedback for drivers while they're driving

Drivers see their speed against the posted limit in red, amber or green, with reminders about harsh braking, cornering and acceleration. Seatbelt reminders are also available.

Digital pre-start and post-trip checks

Paper checklists get lost. With digital checks before and after each trip, you keep a record of each one.

Track defects and keep servicing on schedule

Defects reported in EROAD Inspect go straight to your workshop, with no wait for the vehicle to get back to the depot. Fleet Maintenance keeps service records in one place and supports preventive servicing.

Wheel nut re-torque reminders

A loose wheel puts your driver and other road users at serious risk. After a tyre change or service, the Ehubo2 reminds the driver when the wheel nuts are due to be re-torqued, so it isn't left to memory.

Dashcam footage when an event happens

Clarity dashcams upload a clip when an event such as harsh braking is detected, so nobody has to remember to press record. Clips are automatically tagged by behaviour.

When we started using the tools, because the feedback to the drivers is instantaneous, we saw a huge drop in incidents.
