GreenRoad Technologies has introduced an in-vehicle video system which records dangerous or noteworthy events on the road and in the vehicle, and links with its driver behavior telematics system.

The system associates captured footage with detailed driving behaviour data from its telematics system, giving drivers and managers valuable insight into root causes of risky driving, and helping them develop actionable strategies for safer behaviour in similar situations.

The footage also provides evidence which can protect drivers and fleet-operating businesses from fraudulent claims in the event of no-fault incidents or incidents caused by third parties or external factors. The footage allows events to be investigated quickly and thoroughly, and saves management time by enabling details to be sent to insurers immediately.

An uninterrupted live feed, streamed via mobile connectivity, is available for viewing via the customer’s web portal GreenRoad Central. In addition, video recordings that immediately precede, and follow, any risky driving event are stored for reference. Safety events for which recordings are saved include braking, acceleration, corner handling, lane handling and speeding.

GreenRoad associates stored recordings with the safety events that triggered them, so operators and fleet managers never need to waste time wading through mounds of irrelevant footage to find the few seconds of relevant video.

Roni Raviv, chief technology officer at GreenRoad, said: “The insights that result from combining video and sensor-sourced data are highly actionable for managers. Together with our proven driver learning approach based on feedback loops, they result in tangible return on investment.

“The in-vehicle camera system takes GreenRoad to the next level, showcasing our commitment to applying technological expertise to create market-leading driver behaviour solutions that effectively address the challenges facing fleet businesses today. The success of this approach is reflected by our high rates of customer satisfaction and retention, which are among the best in the industry.”
