      Beyond The Cab: Winning Driver Trust & Protecting All Road Users

As fleets adopt AI-powered safety tools and Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) fatigue laws coming into effect, video telematics, tracking technologies, and driver resistance remains a key challenge. Concerns around privacy, oversight, and job security often slow down adoption—despite the clear benefits for drivers, fleets, and everyone on the road.
