A Score to Settle

North and South signposts

The North-South divide has been the subject of so many arguments over the years, and heated debates between Cockneys and Geordies, Devonians and Scousers are still going on to this very day. Brummies sit on the fence, as they do not want to get involved and, being from the West Midlands, they can happily stay completely neutral. Pie, mash and mushy peas, or pie, chips and gravy. The Magpies or the Gunners?  Cornish pasties or Bury black pudding? The House of Commons and House of Lords would be hard pressed to discuss all of these important matters in detail and would find it extremely difficult to come up with definitive conclusions.

Think Smart

Oh, East is East and West is West, and never the twain shall meet,

When two strong men stand face to face, though they come from the ends of the earth!

How Haultech TrakMan Could Save Your Driver’s Life

In our recent blog we made the case for Telematics and one of the major advantages to a Telematics system is the potential safety it can offer you and your drivers. As a part of Road Safe’s latest winter campaign a shocking statistic reverberated around the nation, 20% of all motorway car crashes are a result of people falling asleep at the wheel. And as many as 2 in 10 day to day crashes are also the result of exhausted drivers out on the road.

The aftermath of falling asleep at the wheel claims an estimated 300 drivers lives every year, and people who drive as a part of their job are at a 40% higher risk of causing or getting caught up in a sleep related crash.

Our TrakMan system can help to significantly reduce this high risk figure, here’s a little reminder of a couple of the safety benefits that come with our Telematics systems:

  • Driver Safety – Telematics systems can be much more than logistics and navigation tools. They have the potential to be a window into the daily safety performance of your drivers; and enable risk assessment in the same way on-site staff is assessed, through observation, feedback and instruction.
  • Accident Frequency and Severity – Telematics systems allow fleet managers to have the ability to identify unsafe or risky driving behaviours that can lead to accidents.

The safety of your drivers is of utmost importance to us here at Haultech; don’t let them be victim to a sleep related crash, get your very own custom built Haultech TrakMan system today!
