so I don’t care that the drivers don’t like them.”
2) “When they know I can see what they are doing, they behave better.”
3) “They aren’t supposed to smoke in my trucks.”
4) “We allow customers in the cab.”
Listen, I agree with you that these cameras can be intrusive, but they are designed that way on purpose. Let’s go through some of these common reasons not to... just so you are informed. With Azuga, while the camera is recording all day you will only get a saved clip if there is a driving event. Meaning, you don’t have to watch them “pick their nose”.
Our equipment has a special certification that prevents us from sharing any footage that comes from your cameras. This is your footage, and you have the option of what you share, what you save and what you delete.
If your drivers cover the camera, you will get an immediate notification that it is blocked so you can reach out to them and have them unblock it.
As many times as I have heard that the drivers are threatening to quit... it’s funny it normally doesn’t happen. Most companies they would want to go to will have the cameras too or will be getting them soon.
Here is what risk managers at these insurance companies have shared with us. The new wrinkle that these lawyers try to use is that they say that their client saw your driver texting before an accident. If your driver is thought to have been distracted, you will lose… even if the accident wasn’t your fault. All they have to do is make the claim! The burden of proof that your driver wasn’t texting falls on you. Azuga has two ways to help you with this scenario.
First of all, our camera has AI and will take a picture if your driver is on their phone while driving and it will beep at them. Hopefully it will train them to wait until they are stopped to use their phone. Also, the cameras record any accident so you will have the video from 10 seconds before the event to 10 seconds after the event. So you will have whatever footage you need to protect yourself.
Our system is very customizable so you can turn the inside camera off if you want to. You can make it where it doesn’t beep when your driver does something wrong. You can customize what it takes pictures of Phone use, eyes not on the road, eating, drinking, smoking, seatbelt or tailgating. So whichever side of the debate you are on… Azuga’s system will work for you.
If it’s my company, I want to protect than need it an not have it.
