WAYS HOW DRIVERCARE COMPLIES WITH APAD/ICOP GPS REGULATIONS

Agensi Pengangkutan Awam Darat (APAD), formerly known as Suruhanjaya Pengangkutan Awam Darat (SPAD) introduced the Safety Guideline and Industrial Code of Practice (ICOP), requiring fleet operators to install and maintain Global Positioning System (GPS) Trackers on all vehicles as a mandatory component to renew APAD JPJ Permit, in an effort to increase the safety of road users.

Meanwhile, road accidents have steadily increased over the past decades rising from 414,421 in 2010 to 567,516 in 2019. According to the safety guidelines by ICOP of Code 13, operators need to install GPS devices to monitor and gather all essential data regarding the driving speeds, locations, and driving behavior patterns.

According to the provisions of ‘Akta Pengangkutan Awam Darat 2010’ and the implementation of ‘Syarat Am’ of Keperluan Tahap Perkhidmatan (KTP), all operators and licensees of public transportation vehicles are required to make sure each vehicle is outfitted with a GPS and functions to monitor and record all trips. The authorized operator must grant GPS system access and integration as required by APAD. As a result, drivers will be more responsible and fleet operators will know exactly where a vehicle is if it requires assistance. Whether it’s a broken down engine or another emergency, fleet managers can dispatch roadside assistance to aid their driver.

Whether you need real-time data to manage your drivers and vehicles, or GPS recording to comply with the APAD regulations, DriverCare meets your operational needs and is fully compliant with relevant guidelines and regulations. To foster a healthy competition among peers and promote a safe driving culture, GPS will be observed and evaluated through an intelligent analytics dashboard to monitor the current location of fleet vehicles.

DriverCare aims to promote safe driving among fleet operators by monitoring, assessing and evaluating each movement of the road pilots. A good road etiquette is vital as it helps reduce accidents and instills civic-minded driving among the drivers. At the same time, the technology helps drivers to abide by the compliance and improve on-the-job performance whilst lowering operating costs. There have been significant changes in driver’s behaviour after the implementation of our application in just one months time.

 

HERE ARE SOME OF THE WAYS ON HOW DRIVERCARE HELPS COMPLY WITH THE GPS REGULATIONS SET BY APAD:

  1. Real Time Data

In reference to the APAD ICOP Code 11 driver logbook regulations, drivers’ needs to provide a logbook record for every bus in their fleet. Similarly, in the DriverCare application, fleet operators are required to key in their username and password into the system. They are required to check in with the vehicle number for each trip in order to access the necessary data. Respective vehicle information will be shown on the dashboard with the current location, date, time, status of vehicle, speed of vehicle, and fuel consumption. The application also allows contacts in case of emergencies.

 

  1. Driver Compliance

The application monitors the speed of the vehicle while driving and sends immediate signals if the driver performs hard driving behaviour like exceeding speed limit, sudden acceleration and even harsh braking. The driver behavior score and driver ranking reports will be evaluated and reviewed, thus actions or solutions will be taken against the driver. Disciplinary action or enhancement on driving courses will be given to drivers who drive recklessly on the road. This GPS tracker ensures that drivers are aware of their driving style and promotes a safer road journey for all road users.

 

  1. Fleet Operation Efficiency

Fleet operators must ensure that all their vehicles are equipped with such telematics applications in order to experience smooth fleet operation management. The system can monitor and record every movement and current active/inactive status of the vehicle. This application as mentioned was designed with the regulations set by APAD to promote a road-free of accidents.

 

With the DriverCare GPS feature, businesses have access to more information than just a vehicle’s location at any given time. Users can now gain a better understanding of their fleet’s functioning because of advancements in telematics devices, sensors, and Artificial Intelligence (AI). The advent of AI will help businesses to gain in-depth knowledge of their vehicle performances and make better decisions.Businesses may gain a holistic view of performance and pinpoint improvement areas by gathering knowledge about driver behaviour, compliance, vehicle maintenance, and job management. Get to know how our DriverCare application can help you better manage your fleet to boost your business. Reach out to our sales consultants today!

 

Fleet management may be made easier with the use of telematics technology. Furthermore, by integrating insurance providers with telematics, insurance prices might be reduced. This saves money for fleet operators and brings more business to insurance carriers at a lower risk. Insurers require various methods to analyze risk and telematics systems are ideal. Fleet technology system that monitors and reports on driver behaviour in the operation of the vehicle provides tangible benefits. Data on driving patterns such as severe braking, acceleration, cornering, speeding and lane changing would allow fleet managers and insurance providers to review risk engineering strategies, resulting in a reduction in the cost of risk for the motor fleet.

 

Telematics driven usage-based insurance systems provide numerous benefits to both insurers and fleet operators. Driving safely and efficiently minimizes costs while increasing profit margins. Dash cam telematics is crucial in monitoring real-time driver behaviour. The video footage and incident insights are published to the dashboard, allowing insurers to determine the exact reason of an incident by providing critical data to comprehend. With technological developments, such goods have seen increased usage.

 

BELOW ARE SOME ADVANTAGES TO PRICE FOR FLEET TELEMATICS INSURANCE:


 

  1. Improves Driving Habits

 

The telematics device collects information about the customer’s driving habits and usage. It
can reward customers with lower premiums if it detects safe driving behaviour. By more
closely linking insurance rates to actual individual usage, insurers may price premiums
more correctly and transparently, which typically leads to consumer satisfaction. It also
allows customers to reduce their insurance premiums by driving fewer miles and practicing
better driving behaviours. Driving more safely helps reduce accidents and car emissions,
which benefits the general society.

 

  1. Telematics Data Insights

 

Insurance firms can obtain a fairly accurate picture of their clients’ on-road driving behaviour with the introduction of both mobile and device-based telematics solutions. Insurers can utilize this data individually or collectively to better understand how drivers behave at different times of day or while driving a certain car. Simultaneously, insurers can gather a wealth of information about their clients’ behaviour, allowing them to identify low- risk groups. This is a powerful tool for determining whether a customer is worth keeping.Data-driven insights provide a more comprehensive picture of individual risk profiles while also lowering claim loss rates through faster and more intelligent claim management.

 

  1. Build an Accident-Free Road Culture

 

Telematics platforms can also be used to measure driving behavior metrics with driver scorecards. These metrics are able to provide fleet drivers with instant feedback on their driving behaviour, assisting them in developing safer driving habits. At an event of accidents, fleet telematics assists insurers in more correctly estimating damages and reducing false claims by evaluating vehicle data such as hard braking, cornering or speeding during those accidents. The use of telematics data helps create an accident-free journey for the drivers as well as other road users.

 


 

SafeTruck has joined hands with insurers in Malaysia to provide established premium costs based on additional risk variables such as car safety, security features, geographical location and traffic offenses on record. We firmly strive to inspire innovation in fleet tech and devote our talents to create superior products and services for a better society. We also believe that our corporate vision is to assist the logistic industry throughout the world reach their maximum potential. Hence, helping fleet operators achieve the best, both in business and safety has always been our goal!

HOW SAFETRUCK COMPLIES TO APAD ICOP REGULATIONS IN FLEET MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Agensi Pengangkutan Awam Darat (APAD), formerly known as Suruhanjaya Pengangkutan Awam Darat (SPAD) introduced the Safety Guideline and
Industrial Code of Practice (ICOP). The main results expected with the implementation of the S.P.A.D ICOP which is Safety for Goods Vehicle Operators program are:

  1. Make safety practises a priority for every Licensed Operator of Goods Vehicles
  2. Attach importance to moral values to overcome problems and weaknesses in the safety practices of each Licensed Operator of Goods Vehicles
  3. Make safety practices the culture and norm of the ground public transport industry

 
As frequently seen these days, the number of traffic accidents has continuously climbed over the years, reaching a number of 402,626 incidents from January to September 2022 in Malaysia, with 4,378 fatality cases according to Paultan.org news. As a result, APAD assisted in reducing fleet accidents by taking administrative and legal action against operators who break safety laws, as well as revoking the operator’s licence and vehicle permission. Additionally, in accordance with the safety standards established by ICOP in Code 13, operators are required to install Global Positioning System (GPS) devices to track and gather all relevant data regarding vehicle speeds, positions, and driving behaviour patterns.

SafeTruck’s Fleet Management System adheres to APAD ICOP Code 13, which is the installation of GPS trackers. A fleet management system makes it simple for fleet managers to locate their vehicles, keep an eye on traffic conditions, track idling time to save money on fuel, and lower the chances of accidents by improving driver performance. The Safety Guidelines and Industrial Code of Practice (ICOP), which are also introduced by APAD, mandates that fleet operators install and maintain Global Positioning System (GPS) trackers. All vehicles must have trackers since they are a crucial part of renewing an APAD JPJ permit.

“SafeTruck’s Fleet Management System adheres to APAD ICOP Code 13, which is the installation of GPS trackers.”

DRIVERCARE AS PART OF APAD ICOP COMPLIANCE

DriverCare is a driver app that aids drivers to fully fill the checklist submission efficiently with a quick 3 steps process. Operators of fleets must provide driving logbooks and contain information about vehicle movements and driver substitutions. The driver’s name, date, time of birth, time of arrival, time of rest, and travel distance must all be recorded. DriverCare, which
is SafeTrucks fleet management system, is the app that features Track Attendance (Check In & Out), Checklist Submission, Emergency Call, Vehicle & Driver Info and Licence Expiry reminder. The Driving Scoring feature is also available for fleet owners or operators to check on
drivers’ driving behaviour. Therefore, it is crucial for fleet operators to purchase a functioning, trustworthy, and SIRIM-approved GPS to track the whereabouts of their vehicles and their driving styles.

Fleet operators must enter their login and password into the system in order to access real-time data of SafeTruck’s systems in accordance with APAD ICOP code 11. To get the essential information, they must check in using the vehicle number associated with each journey. As a result, the programme will display vehicle
information such as a dashboard with the current position, date, and time, as well as the status, speed, and fuel consumption of the vehicle.

 


GPS TRACKERS INSTALLATION COMPLIANCE WITH APAD ICOP

Code 13 with a GPS Tracker installation is the second APAD ICOP. All buses must be fitted with bus GPS Trackers, according to bus fleet operators. The GPS tracker must be able to track the vehicle’s speed and location.

The driver’s vehicle status, ignition, initial drive, PTO (Power Take Off), time, speed, device status, current mileage, and others may all be tracked using the SafeTruck’s Fleet Management System. It can guarantee compliance with regulations right from their fingertips. SafeTruck’s Fleet Management System was created with the purpose of complying with APAD ICOP regulations set by the government. Every movement and the vehicle’s current active or inactive status can be tracked and recorded by the system from time to time.

APAD COMPLIANCE IS ENSURED WITH SAFETRUCK’S FLEET MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

The APAD ICOP Code 14 for Tracker Monitoring and Surveillance requires fleet operators to ensure that each vehicle’s speed is constantly tracked while it is in use and that swift action is taken when a driver is reckless or exceeds the speed limit. Additionally, it will assess and look over the GPS monitoring system’s report.

According to ‘The Borneo Post’ news, after numerous bus accidents, wrecks, and fatalities recorded in 2012, vehicle safety became a concern in 2013, which is when the Industrial Code of Practice was implemented, which significantly ensured that every voyage was safe for both drivers and passengers. DriverCare is an application by SafeTruck that can monitor and control driving behaviour. Complete records of driver behaviour are provided, driver scorecard parameters are managed, drivers with higher risk profiles are highlighted, and additional management needs are satisfied. Truck drivers perform better, making it easier to locate their trucks, monitor traffic conditions, track idle time to save money on fuel, and lower the risk of accidents. With the real-time information gathered, they may download and assess the GPS trackers every day as required by APAD after each journey to check on
the performance of the drivers.

It is possible to guarantee regulatory compliance from the palm of your hand with SafeTruck’s Fleet Management System. The application is simple to use because it allows for real-time data access and updates on vehicle movements. The IoT-integrated application also aids in easing the stress of the driver while driving, ensures systematised paperless documentation,
hassle-free filing and enables simple fleet vehicle
tracking.

SafeTruck’s Fleet Management System in accordance with the safety regulations set by the government offers you a comprehensive service plan that includes lifetime hardware warranty, installation, subscription, troubleshooting, and round-the-clock emergency support at any time of the day.
