We are excited to announce some new camera features for the AirIQ Fleet platform. They are available as of April 18, 2023.

• Manage Distracted Driving Events
• Camera Obstruction Event
• Possible Fatigue Event

Manage Districted Driving

You can now manage each distracted driving event individually. Each event can be turned on or off based on your requirements. This gives you the ability to further customize your fleet. Before this feature was available you could only turn on or off all the distracted driving events at one time.

Camera Obstruction Events

The AI-12 dashcam can now detect when something is blocking the driver facing camera. Unfortunately, there are some drivers that do not want to be seen and they will continuously cover up the camera. This is obviously bad for many reasons. However, the most important thing is to prevent it. This new event will now make that much easier. If the Camera Obstruction event is turned on then every time the driver camera is blocked the camera will beep and a video clip will be uploaded to your account.

Possible Fatigue Event

Falling asleep while driving is obviously very dangerous. Anytime a driver is fatigued the potential for an accident increases. This new event will now make it much easier to detect when a driver is potentially falling asleep. Every time a driver appears to fall asleep the camera will beep and upload a videoclip of the incident.

Ambulance Goes Missing

On the night of July 21, 2021, a private ambulance was stolen directly from a hospital. The vehicle belonged to one of our clients. The individual took the vehicle while the employee was inside. A guard attempted to stop him, but the thief pulled out a knife and drove away. As the ambulance sped away the guard shot one of the rear tires. He got away for about 15 minutes before the police caught him. Little did he know that there was a GPS tracking camera recording everything he did.

As soon as the dispatcher knew the vehicle was stolen, she turned on the live video to watch the entire event in real time. She could see the ambulance moving across the map. This helped her guide the police to the exact location. With the driver facing camera she could also clearly identify the individual.

Video Evidence

A complete video record of the driver and the road was captured and downloaded for evidence. The GPS records were also included. This provides great evidence to the police as well as the insurance company in case there was any damage.

This story is a great example of how GPS tracking cameras can provide benefits in unusual ways. A solid, reliable record of what happens in and around your vehicles is good business practice. You never know what might happen.

If you want to learn how we can help you achieve the same thing, please contact us today. We will show you a live demo so you can see how it works for a real customer.

Stix Trucking Discovers Benefits of GPS Tracking Cameras

In this article I want to introduce you to one of our best customers, Stix Trucking out of San Antonio, TX. They are a gravel hauling company that does work all around the San Antonio region. Mario, the owner, was looking for an affordable GPS camera system for his fleet of 4 trucks. He wanted to capture video from all sides of the vehicles. He also needed to be able to find his trucks at any time.

Stix Trucking was very concerned about safety, video evidence, and more accurate records. They also wanted to work with a local company that could take care of them. Someone who is responsive and knowledgeable.

The owner wanted to capture video of the road in front of the truck, the driver, the sides, and the rear. In particular he was interested in watching the load in the back of his truck.

On top of video they also needed GPS tracking, They have to locate their vehicles in real time, track hours for payroll, and make sure their drivers are not speeding.

Based on those requirements, I recommended our AI-12 GPS tracking camera with HD Fleet service. This was the most affordable option that provided all the benefits that Stix wanted.

Video Evidence

Stix Trucking was concerned about incidents happening on the road. Mario wanted to make sure he had video evidence in case any thing occurred. With the AI-12 he was able to do that. It comes standard with a forward and driver facing camera. There is also the option of adding external Wi-Fi cameras that can be mounted in a variety of places around a vehicle.

A forward facing camera obviously provides great evidence for anything that happens in front. However, a lot of incidents happen on the sides especially when it’s a larger truck. Mario wanted to make sure he had coverage on each side of his trucks. So we installed a camera on each side mirror. This provides great coverage down the side of each truck. Now if anything happens on the side he is covered.

Watch the Load

Mario was also very concerned about the load they were carrying. He wanted to watch the trailer to make sure that everything was loaded correctly. He needed a quick and easy way to do that. The AI-12 allows him to easily review video while material is being loaded into the trailer. This can help him save time and money by catching a problem before it gets out of hand.

Rear Camera

Slow Down the Trucks

Speeding is a critical factor in many accidents. One bad accident could ruin a business in a heartbeat. So Mario needed an easy way to protect his business and make sure his drivers were obeying the law.

The great news is that HD Fleet automatically detects when a vehicle goes above the posted speed limit. That information is available in a report and can also be sent as an alert by email or text. This gives Mario the ability to coach his drivers so they can slow down and prevent an accident.

Real Time GPS Tracking

Besides video Mario also needed the ability to track his vehicles in real time, automate time sheets, and have proof of service. Since the AI-12 is also a GPS tracker it could do all of these things and more.

Mario needs the ability to locate his trucks at any time and from any where to better manage his business. With the HD Fleet website or mobile app he can do it. If a customer calls and asks where their load is Mario can find out right away.

Map with route

Save Time and Money by Automating Time Sheets

Mario pays his drivers by the hour. Before he had a GPS camera he had to calculate the time sheets manually. This was time consuming and prone to errors. If he had to verify any records it was difficult to do because the information did not exist or was hard to get too. He needed an easy to use system that could help automate and improve the accuracy of his time sheets.

Fortunately. the AI-12 and HD Fleet were up to the task. Every customer gets a series of time sheet reports that can be run by day, vehicle, or driver. These reports have made life much easier for Mario. All he has to do is run the report and check the start and end times for any errors. Payroll can now be done in 30 minutes or less.

Time Sheet By Day Report

Since the cameras have been installed Mario has been able to better manage his business. He does not have to spend time gathering information he can go to one place and get everything, video, GPS records, time stamps, reports, and much more.

I would love to show you how GPS tracking cameras can benefit your business. Contact me today to schedule a demo or learn more.

Company Finds Stolen Vehicle with GPS Tracker

I love to write about customers who have used GPS tracking to better their business in different ways. In this blog the company finds a stolen vehicle with the help of their GPS tracker.

One of our best customers, H3O Water Systems in San Antonio, TX, just told me that one of their vehicles was stolen from their yard. The GPS tracker helped them recover the vehicle the same day without the help of the police.

All they had to do was log in to their GPS tracking account and locate the vehicle. Once they did that one of the supervisors went to the location and drove the vehicle away. They didn’t even call the police.

Unfortunately, this customer has had 3 vehicles stolen in the last 4 years. The great news is that they recovered all the vehicles right away. Without GPS tracking they would have been lucky if the police found anything.

Up and Running Quickly

A stolen vehicle can cause the company a ton of problems. Your insurance may cover the cost of the vehicle and tools, but it doesn’t replace lost time and productivity. How long does it take to deal with insurance and replace the vehicle and tools?

A GPS tracking device makes it much more likely that you will find the vehicle right away. Therefore, avoiding as little down time as possible. Just like H3O Water all you have to do is login to your GPS tracking account from your phone or computer to find your vehicle.

The goal is to get you back up and running as quickly as possible.

Automatic Alerts

You can even take it a step further and setup automatic alerts if the vehicle leaves after hours. The alert can be delivered by text message or email to whoever you want. This way if the vehicle is stolen in the middle of the night you can find out right away.

If you would like to get the same benefits as H3O Water please call me at 888-777-4510 or send me an email at mgoldberg@efficientfleets.com.

Toni’s Landscaping

I want to thank Toni Munoz from Toni’s Landscaping in Dallas, TX for joining the Efficient Fleets family. We are very excited to have them on board. Toni runs a very successful landscaping business in Dallas. His business is growing fast and he needed a better way to get handle on the growth.

Toni owns 10 trucks and manages project all over town. It is nearly impossible to keep track of everyone. If one of his crews decides to do a side job he would never know.

Someone suggested to Toni that he should get GPS tracking on his trucks. Fortunately, he  found us through a mutual friend.

Toni ultimately chose us and our AirIQ solution because we take the time to work with each customer. We understood what he needed because we have the experience.

We provide a level of service that our competitors can’t match. We took care of everything for Toni. We arranged for professional onsite installation so Toni didn’t have to.

We also setup his entire account so it was ready from day one. We updated the vehicle names, setup notifications, and additional users.

Now Toni knows where every truck is at all times. He knows every stop that is made and how long each truck is there for. He can also prevent side jobs and personnel errands from bleeding his business.

If you would like to get the same benefits as Toni’s Landscaping please give me a call or send me an email at mgoldberg@efficientfleets.com.

It’s pretty simple wIth a GPS tracking camera from Efficient Fleets. Any company that owns vehicles needs to have a GPS camera.

A video camera in your vehicle will typically record all the activity inside and in front of your vehicle. This will allow you to see what the driver is doing and anything that happens on the road.

What Are the Benefits of a GPS Camera?

• Help Keep the Lawyers Away
• Protect the Business from Frivolous Lawsuits
• Improve Customer Service

One of the greatest benefits of a camera is the ability to prevent distracted driving. Today there are more distractions in the vehicle than ever before including texting, talking, eating, smoking, etc.

If one of your employees is distracted while driving a company vehicle and causes an accident then you could be liable. The only way to prevent that is if your drivers know that you are watching.

Help Keep the Lawyers Away

A business is almost guaranteed to get sued if one of their vehicles is involved in an accident. Without video evidence you have almost no chance of winning.

How much money and time would you save if a lawsuit is dismissed immediately or never filed at all? The answer is, of course, thousands of dollars and countless hours.

Video evidence is the only clear way to prove that your employees are not distracted behind the wheel. If there is any suspicion of distracted driving the video will clearly show it. Some of the more sophisticated cameras can automatically detect distracted driving, like our Surfsight AI-12.

Protect the Business from Frivolous Lawsuits

Video is great evidence for more than just accidents. Any activity that happens inside or around your vehicle can be recorded if there is a camera. We can install cameras facing the driver and passengers. Any incident that occurs in the vehicle will be documented. There will be no more guessing what happened.

Cameras can also be installed outside the vehicle for example on the sides and the rear.

Improve Customer Service

A GPS tracking camera can do more than keep the lawyers away. It can also make your customers happy and satisfied. The video and tracking information can be used to verify that you were onsite and completed your job.

What do you do if a customer says that your driver did not show up? Without a camera there is not much you can do. With a GPS camera you can prove with the video and the GPS that you were there. You can easily send a video clip or snapshot to your customer to prove it.

I believe very strongly that every company can benefit from a GPS video camera. The benefits are too high and the price too affordable to ignore.

The Surfsight AI-12 GPS video camera is our newest GPS tracking camera. It’s affordable, easy-to-use, and packed with benefits. In this article I am going to give you my reasons why I think you need to consider this camera for your fleet.

Automatic Distracted Driving Detection

How much does an accident cost? The answer is always too much. One of the most important reasons you buy a camera is to prevent accidents from happening in the first place. To do that you need something to warn you of potentially dangerous behavior.

That is where the AI-12 GPS video camera comes in. The AI-12 has built-in automatic distracted driving detection. If the driver moves his or her eyes away from the road then the AI-12 will warn the driver with a beeping noise. The camera will also send a 10 second video clip to the cloud for later viewing.

GPS Tracking

Video is great, but if you don’t know have the location then you only have a part of the story. That is why the AI-12 is also a great GPS tracker. The GPS turns the camera into a true fleet management tool.

The AI-12 updates the location of the vehicle every 60 seconds. It records trips, daily mileage, speed, stops, and more. All of that can help you save money and improve customer service.

Flexible

One of the things that I love about the AI-12 is that it’s flexible. We all know that one size doesn’t fit all. Every business owner knows that things change if you have been in business long enough.

That is why the AI-12 is a great choice. It can grow and change with you. You can add up to 3 additional Wi-Fi cameras to your setup. This gives you the ability to record around the vehicle for added protection.

Passenger Side Camera

A camera on the sides or the rear is a valuable investment. Many times vehicles are hit in the back or the side.

Large commercial vehicles are also at greater risk due to their size. If there is no camera on the outside and there is an accident then you are at the mercy of the insurance companies. The AI-12 makes it very easy and affordable to add extra cameras.

Affordable

One of the most exciting things about the AI-12 is the price. The prices for commercial grade vehicle cameras have been high for a long time. The AI-12 has really dropped the price to a more affordable level.

I believe very strongly that every company can benefit from a GPS video camera. The benefits are too high and the price too affordable to ignore. If you happen to be lucky enough to read this blog then you can save big time on the AI-12. I will give you a $50 discount for each AI-12 that you purchase from us. The regular price is $399.99 (I almost never publish our hardware prices, so you are lucky if you are reading this). With the discount it is only $349.99. The only way to receive the discount is to send an email to mgoldberg@efficientfleets.com with the subject “AI-12 DISCOUNT”. Please include the company name, contact person, phone #, and fleet size.

If you want to schedule a demo or learn more about how the AI-12 can help your business please contact me at 888-777-4510 or send an email to mgoldberg@EfficientFleets.com.

We love to hear great stories from our customers about how they use our solutions. I heard one the other day from Timothy Perez at Ace Quality Construction. He told me that one of their vans was stolen in November 2019.

Mr. Perez said that as soon as they knew the vehicle was missing they logged into their GPS tracking account and found it. They were only 30 minutes behind the thieves.

They immediately called the police. They were able to give them the location and direction of the vehicle. This allowed the police to find the van immediately. Unfortunately, the bad guys were gone, but our customer was able to recover the vehicle without any major damage.

The van was back in service the next day. This saved Ace Quality Construction a ton of time and money. Without the tracker they most likely would not have found the vehicle so quickly or at all.

I think this is a great example of the power of real time GPS tracking. There are so many exciting benefits that I am always surprised to find fleets that are still not using it.
