Overview

A primary concern in various industries revolves around road safety, especially for those who oversee complex fleets of vehicles. It is essential to ensure that drivers consistently comply with safety standards, and proactive identification and mitigating potential risks have become more critical in today’s landscape. This case study highlights the challenges faced by City Zone Express Sdn Bhd. It explores more on how the solution provided by Safevision AI Video Safety achieves reducing fuel usage through aggressive driving behavior monitoring.

Introduction

City Zone Express Sdn Bhd, a leading urban transportation company, was experiencing high fuel costs due to the aggressive driving behaviors of its drivers. SafeVision, an advanced AI video telematic solution, was approached to analyze, monitor, and address this pressing issue, resulting in lower fuel usage and substantial operational cost savings.

The management at City Zone Express was aware that aggressive driving behaviors were leading to increased fuel consumption and costs. However, they lacked the tools and data necessary to pinpoint specific behaviors and individual drivers responsible. Such aggressive driving practices increased fuel expenses, posed a risk to public road safety, and negatively impacted the company’s reputation.

Challenges

The business expansion presented Mr. Baldev with numerous challenges in managing his fleet.

“Before implementing SafeVision, City Zone Express management faced challenges in mitigating potential accidents, addressing aggressive driving behaviors, and lacked real-time insights into driver activities, resulting in increased fuel consumption and operational inefficiencies.”

“SafeVision has revolutionized our fleet management, ensuring safety and efficiency in our daily operations. With its advanced collision detection and proactive alerts, we’ve seen a remarkable reduction in potential accidents and associated costs. SafeVision’s ability to monitor and curb risky behaviors, from desktop use to tailgating, has instilled a culture of responsible driving among our team.

One standout impact has been on fuel efficiency, particularly in our operations. SafeVision’s monitoring of aggressive driving behavior has significantly reduced excessive fuel usage. By promoting smoother driving, we’ve witnessed tangible cost savings. We wholeheartedly recommend SafeVision to any business looking to enhance the safety of their fleet for better management.”
