SmartDrive Wins Large Trucking Firm

San Diego-based video-based transportation safety systems developer SmartDrive Systems has scored a win with a large trucking firm, Atlas Trucking, for that company's entire fleet, SmartDrive said this week. Financial details of the win were not announced. SmartDrive Systems said that Atlas rolled out its platform without even conducting a pilot deployment, just based on recommendations from other fleets. Atlas specifically cited two incidents, shortly after rollout, where video from SmartDrive's systems were used to exonerate two drivers; Atlas said the system, if it had been in operation a few years ago during another incident would have "saved us a lot of money, time, and grief". Atlast Trucking has operations in all 48 contiguous United States.
