Preventing Incidents on the Road: Addressing Driver Behavior Challenges

In the realm of driver safety, modern fleets encounter a multitude of challenges. A staggering 87% of commercial motor vehicle crashes stem from driver behavior or error. Two prominent issues that pose significant risks are distracted driving and tailgating.

Distracted Driving: According to the NSC, distracted driving stands as the primary cause of vehicle collisions. Each year, at least 1.6 million collisions and fatal crashes occur due to individuals making calls or sending text messages while behind the wheel.

Tailgating: Responsible for a high number of rear-end collisions, tailgating leads to over 1,700 fatalities and 500,000 injuries annually.

These behaviors not only endanger drivers themselves but also jeopardize the safety of others on the road. Detecting and addressing these behaviors in real-time before they result in preventable incidents presents a unique challenge.
