idle time, sothat usersare
aware of the drivers work and
errant drivers canbeidentified.
•It also helps them reduce fuel
consumption and unnecessary
overtime costs.
•In casean idle vehicle is
identified, immediate trip can
be assignedto it in that
particular area.Thusmore trips
per dayare made and more
trips convert into more
business.
•Geo-fence alerts admin if any
vehicle is being usedbeyond a
virtual set perimeter during
non-working hours or for non-
assigned trips.
