Aggressive driving is one of the four main focuses of Road Safety Week<\/a>. GoFleet’s fleet tracking devices<\/strong> can help you eliminate the aggressive driving habits of your drivers.<\/p>\n What exactly is Aggressive Driving? When applying g-forces to different driving maneuvers such as harsh accelerating, harsh cornering or harsh braking, what constitutes aggressive movement?<\/p>\n Some statistics:<\/p>\n Most people don’t think they are a risky drivers. In a surprising 2008 survey by the AAA Foundation’s Traffic Safety Culture Index, 78% of respondents rated aggressive drivers as a serious or extremely serious traffic problem. Most of the same people then reported driving in ways that could not be considered aggressive.<\/p>\n Three out of four drivers reported they believe they are more careful than other drivers. What’s the point? It is crucial that all drivers, both of personal and\/or commercial vehicles assess their own driving habits.<\/p>\n For businesses operating a fleet of vehicles, this is often hard to evaluate. One way of doing this is to be able to provide valuable feedback to drivers as they are performing the various driving maneuvers necessary throughout the day. This empowers them to change their driving habits before any management even has to get involved. Our fleet tracking devices<\/a> offer instant feedback for different aggressive driving instances.<\/p>\n Studies show that instant feedback in any area is the most effective way of changing human behavior. Driver feedback paired with the ability of management to “see” how their vehicles are being driven provides a very effective way for companies to help ensure their drivers are the safest on the road.<\/p>\n For more information on our fleet tracking devices and driver safety feedback check out: Audible Alerts Reduce Risk<\/a> or contact a Fleet Consultant<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Fleet Tracking Devices Eliminate Aggressive Driving and Bad Driving Habits Aggressive driving is one of the four main focuses of Road Safety Week.
