Tech in Trucking: Using Technology to Improve Safety, Compliance & Efficiency
Technology has become an increasingly important part of modern trucking operations, but having the technology is only part of the equation. In this episode of Driven by Diesel, Stephanie and Tina explore how fleets can use technology to support drivers, strengthen safety and compliance processes, and make more informed operational decisions. They discuss electronic logging devices (ELDs), electronic driver vehicle inspection reports (EDVIRs), dash cameras, in-cab safety systems, smart routing and GPS technology, and the technology being used at weigh stations and roadside checkpoints. They also talk about how these tools can provide valuable information for driver coaching, corrective action, claims, inspections, and fleet management. The conversation also looks ahead at the role AI and emerging technology may play in trucking.
