Driver Safety Scoring Programs

Structured driver safety scoring reduces accidents, insurance premiums, and CSA scores. Fleets running scoring programs see 30–50% reductions in preventable incidents within 12 months.

Data Sources

ELD data (hard-brake, hard-turn, hard-accel events), dashcam alerts (Samsara, Motive, Lytx), CSA data (roadside inspections), and internal telematics.

Scoring Model

Weight events by severity: hard-brake at highway speed > urban. Publish weekly leaderboard. Set a floor score for continued employment.

Coaching Cadence

Automated coaching for minor events. In-person for repeated moderate events. Formal write-up for severe events.

Incentive Structure

Quarterly safety bonuses for top quartile. Insurance premium reductions typically fund the bonus pool.
