Advanced fleet technology influences safety, operational costs

You hear words like artificial intelligence and machine learning thrown around a lot, often about how Facebook and Amazon know the next thing you want to buy even before you do. But AI has long played a role in trucking safety. Take dash cams, for example.

Netradyne Director of Performance Marketing Austin Schmidt, who joins us on the 10-44 this week, said a dash camera with good AI capabilities makes the camera itself a better tool, capable of doing more than simply keeping the carrier from losing a lawsuit.

Austin stresses that simply having AI isn’t good enough; it’s having good AI. But as a fleet, how do I know the good from the bad?
