Lytx Ties Into Daimler Trucks

San Diego-based video telematics provider Lytx has inked a new collaboration deal with Daimler Truck North America, the two said last week. According to the company--whose camera systems are used for monitoring driver safety--the company's systems will be integrated into select Freightliner and Western Star truck models, and can be ordered directly from the Daimler factory. The two said the first trucks to incorporate its products will be built in early 2023. In addition to the Daimler deal, Lytx also said it is rolling out a new feature, which will flag when commercial drivers have pulled off unsafely at interstate highways and on/off ramps, which typically are very risk due to collision possibilities.
