Improve Safety & Compliance

When it comes to the transportation industry there is no hot-button topic more talked about than safety and compliance.

From the CSA 2010 roll-out to distracted driver legislation, the ever-changing regulatory environment has a direct impact on your company, as well as its bottom line. As always, driver safety is the priority.

CSA
The FMCSA has now launched the new Compliance, Safety, Accountability Program for commercial trucks, leading companies to further evaluate fleet performance.

The following areas will be critical in this new regulatory environment, and fortunately, are supported by Shaw Tracking products and services:

  • Monitoring and management of unsafe driving
  • Management of drivers’ hours of service

Distracted Driver Legislation 
Driver distractions come in many forms, but the use of texting and hand-held cell phones has increased in recent years, creating unacceptable levels of risk.

And while transportation companies agree that safety is the number one priority for operations, today’s commercial vehicle drivers depend more than ever on information. Cutting off access to in-cab communications is simply not an option, which is why Shaw Tracking provides technology and wireless services that help keep your drivers’ eyes on the road where they belong, while enabling them to stay in touch with back office and dispatch.

Customer Testimonials

"We are extremely excited to be using the new Mobile Computing Platform system. Our drivers are impressed with text-to-speech functionality. Drivers can keep their eyes on the road and hands of the wheel that allows for increased safety. We purchased units based on driver benefits today as well as future capabilities to use this as an enhanced platform." John Erik Albrechtsen, Manager, Operations, Paul’s Hauling Group
"Tandet Management Inc. was excited to find a solution that would enable full compliance with strict hours of service regulations while improving operational efficiency within our organization. Shaw Tracking’s HOS application provides real-time visibility into our drivers’ current driving status and available hours, allowing our dispatchers to better plan future stops and driver schedules while maximizing daily truck miles.”
“We have had positive driver feedback and acceptance—the system is user-friendly and enhances the in-cab experience by eliminating manual driver logs. With the HOS solution, our drivers have been able to benefit from 30-60 minutes more drive time per week.” Corey Cox, Director, Information Management Systems, Tandet Management
"We continue to be impressed with the technology that Shaw Tracking has provided. We will be able to implement Automated Hours of Service in our entire fleet without having to purchase any new hardware. For Challenger, with 1,500 vehicles, there are huge advantages associated with this kind of transition including obvious hardware cost savings as well as the convenience of not having to physically route all our vehicles into a terminal in order to upgrade the hardware.” Enno Jakobson, Executive Vice President, Challenger Motor Freight
