DriveCam Video System Sheds Light on Root Causes of Crashes for Commercial Fleets

DriveCam Video Systems, a San Diego-based developer of fleet safety technology, has published a white paper titled, "Bringing Down the Cost of Vehicle Crashes: The Impact of the DriveCam Driving Feedback System on Insurance Costs for Commercial Fleets." Intended for insurance executives, risk managers and fleet operators, the white paper analyzes the costs and examines the root causes of motor vehicle crashes, especially as they pertain to commercial fleets.According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, motor vehicle collisions cost the U.S. more than $230 billion each year. For fleets, the costs include both insured and uninsured expenses. In examining these costs, the paper describes the relationship between losses and insurance rates, the effect on worker's compensation costs, and preventative actions taken by fleets. It also includes two case studies involving fleets that use the DriveCam Driving Feedback System to reduce collisions.

The paper was commissioned by DriveCam and was written by Kennith D. Brock, CSP. Brock is a senior partner with Strategic Safety Solutions LLC, a risk/safety consulting firm.
