16 Feb 20225 Ways to Improve Fleet Driver Safety in 2022
With everything going on in the world, the pandemic, supply-chain problems, and shortages of both drivers and vehicles, 2022 is going to be another difficult year for businesses reliant on fleets. To avoid any serious problems in 2022 like damaged vehicles or injured drivers, it’s important to focus on driver safety. Below, we will go over 5 steps to improve fleet driver safety in 2022.
#1) Prioritize Training
A great way to get ahead of poor driving behavior is by using online driver training and videos along with behind-the-wheel driver training. This will give employees a good sense of what is and isn’t expected of them when they’re behind the wheel along with how and why to avoid certain dangerous driving behaviors. Plus, behind-the-wheel driver training will allow supervisors and other experienced employees to evaluate drivers and give them tips on what they can do differently to make sure they’re driving safely on the road.
The global chip shortage is set to continue into 2022, most likely through at least mid-year 2022. As a result, the microchip shortage is causing delays in the production of vehicles — and is hurting truck fleets.
Fleets that are experiencing tough times due to rising costs of vehicles and the inaccessibility of them need to take great care of the vehicles they do have in their fleet and look to improve them to the best of their ability. One effective way to do this is to use GPS tracking.
How GPS Tracking Can Help
With GPS tracking vehicles all vehicles can be monitored to ensure they are having routine checkups and maintenance. Plus, vehicles with higher mileage can be monitored and used in different business functions that require less driving.

So, what can you do to prevent your car from being stolen? The most practical solution is getting a GPS tracker for your vehicle.
