Here What Camera Users Say about Driver Witness Cam!
aide automotive offer a variety of incident or Driver Witness Cam s for commercial vehicles.
In a recent feature on the Commercial Motor website, read what some users said.
Case study: ABE Ledbury
Andy Boyle, MD of ABE Ledbury, started installing Driver Witness Cam s in his fleet of more than 30 lorries last year following a road rage incident. One of his drivers took the keys out of a car and threw them over a hedge after the car driver pulled out in front of his truck. “He did over-react but he was on the phone to us within a couple of minutes,” recalls Boyle. “He said he wanted forward-facing cameras from that moment onwards.”
For Boyle, using such cameras is now non-negotiable. “I am confident that, by and large, drivers will be positive, but if they don’t like it they can find a job somewhere else. I’m dismissive of people’s sensibilities if it’s going against the realities of life,” he says.
Case study: DHL Supply Chain
Tim Slater, MD, Transport UK and Ireland at DHL Supply Chain, says the company has more than 4,000 forward-facing cameras installed across its fleet, which is one of the key elements of its transport strategy.
He says: “By installing cameras, we aim to make our vehicles the safest and most efficient on the road. The cameras protect our drivers and assets by allowing us to understand the circumstances of an incident, and have had a positive effect on driver behaviour both behind the wheel and as a training tool. We believe that all collisions and incidents are preventable and using initiatives such as forward-facing cameras helps us to reduce these significantly.”
