Solar Powered GPS Tracking
Solar powered means the devices are powered by the sun. There are two important tracking devices powered in this manner to consider:
Winter snow and sun glare not only hurt your eyes, but they can create hazardous driving conditions for fleet vehicles and ordinary passenger vehicles. There are things you can do to minimize the impact of winter snow and sun glare to help your drivers stay safer on the roads this winter.
The reflection of sunlight from the snow can be blinding and that can lead to a host of accidents if your drivers (and others on the road) don’t follow safer driving practices in these types of conditions.
Why is Snow Glare so Dangerous?
Among the biggest problems with snow glare is the fact that it’s a one-two knockout punch. You feel the instant prick of pain in a tender spot in the brain. The pain itself can linger long after the initial blast, impairing your ability to focus on what’s taking place on the road ahead of you.
The second part of the problem is that it affects your ability to see what’s happening on the road in front of you. That means it will take you longer to react to the unexpected and you may miss some things, like pedestrians or animals darting out in front of you ― or even other vehicles.
