Improving Driver and Fleet Safety

Challenges

California UMI had a big issue with driver safety and Distracted Driving, experiencing 19 at-fault accidents, 16 of which were fender benders caused by distracted driving.
Needed a GPS tracking solution that could not only streamline day-to-day fleet operations and cut fuel costs, but also drastically reduce accident rates and eliminate driver phone-usage on the road.

Solutions

UMI found Azuga’s cost effective OBD-based GPS solution to be the perfect fit for their Light-Duty fleet.
Additionally, Azuga was the only GPS vendor able to offer tool to stop distracted driving among their drivers, and fit within the company’s budget.

Results

After installing Azuga Drivesafe into all of the drivers’ phones, California UMI was able to reduce their accident rates by 89%, and have yet to experience an at-fault accident from distracted driving.
Just by having Azuga GPS, coupled with a significant drop in accident rates, California UMI has received a 12% discount on their insurance across the entire fleet.
California UMI has seen an average of 7% reduction in idling across the entire fleet, netting them roughly $12,000 per year in idling reductions alone.
