The latest development in GPS technology is here and companies are already putting it to good use. Vital information such speed, directions and location could only be relayed the the driver of the vehicle with old GPS models. New newest devices however can relay this information to a computer anywhere in the world and this is very usually for business that has fleets of vehicle out on the road. A taxi company or Ford van leasing company for instance would benefit enormously. Lets examine exactly what these tools can tell companies
Speeding. Not only can they tell the driver how fast the vehicle is going, but they can also tell an operator. The intensity of the breaking and acceleration of the vehicle can also be monitored on some models. What this means is that good drivers can be rewarded and bad drivers given warnings
Petrol. Before GPS there was always a risk that drivers, especially in the van leasing trade, would claim petrol money from their employers for miles that were covered whilst not on work hours. The tachometer could always be looked at but this only showed the miles traveled and doesn’t say when and where. There is now no room for argument though as bosses can see what miles were covered, on which roads and at what time of the day. Traffic data can even be monitored via them
Location. Knowing the location of each of your team on the road is invaluable for speeder responses. The operator can simply contact the driver who is closest to a destination by seeing where they are on a live map, saving a great deal of phoning back and forth between the team.
