Simplify the Process with Fleet Alerts
Thanks to advanced fleet tracking software, alerting your drivers’ is incredibly simple.
When creating a custom fleet alert, make sure to select the option to notify your driver. This way, if they have violated the threshold customized by your company standards, they will be notified by either SMS text message or straight to their portable navigation device, giving them the opportunity to change their behavior right away. Also, include a custom note, something like “turn off your engine,” if you are looking to lower idle time.

You can customize alerts even further by assigning landmarks or specific odd-hours; this could potentially prevent a vehicle theft or a driver from using the company vehicle outside of a particular territory or non-work hours.
