RISKY BUSINESS - #015: Getting Driver Buy In for In-Cab Cameras

A great article here from FleetOwner with two stories of in-cab cameras saving the day not only for the company, also the driver! Trucking companies and drivers are presumed guilty until proven innocent, what does your defense look like without this type of technology to prove the plaintiffs bar wrong?

The three top ideas you will glean from this article:

1) Dash cameras improve safety, accountability, and insurance claims processing for fleet drivers.

2) Positive reinforcement and understanding driver motivations are key to gaining driver buy-in for camera programs.

3) Recognizing good driving behaviors and gamifying performance challenges encourage driver participation.
