Driving Safety

Protect every employee who drives for work

AI-powered driving safety for field forces, without invading their privacy. SafetyConnect's Driving Safety detects distraction, fatigue, speeding, and harsh driving in real time, then helps your team build safer habits with the SafetyConnect Score.

80%Fewer road incidents reported
The field force problem

Your field force drives blind. You only find out after the crash

Service engineers, sales teams, and technicians spend the working day on the road, alone, in the highest-risk activity most companies ask of their people. Until something goes wrong, you have no visibility into how they drive.

On the road, alone

Field teams drive more kilometres than anyone in the company, often in their own vehicles, with no one alongside them

Telematics shows dots, not behaviour

GPS tells you where a vehicle went. It does not tell you about the distraction, fatigue, or overspeeding that actually causes crashes

You find out after the crash

With no behaviour data, the first real signal is the incident report. By then it is too late to coach the driver who needed it

How it works

How SafetyConnect's driving safety software works

No hardware and no dashcams. Three steps, running on the phone your team already carries

BUSINESS · ON
01

The driver app runs in the background

On the employee's own phone, business-hours-only by default. It reads GPS, accelerometer, and gyroscope. No camera, no in-vehicle hardware, no installation.

AI detects risky driving in real time

Distraction, fatigue, harsh braking, harsh acceleration, overspeeding, and sharp cornering, scored at trip level with the context behind each event

Coaching and recognition close the loop

Drivers see their own SafetyConnect Score and trends. Managers see group risk patterns. Recognition rewards safe driving, not just penalties for unsafe driving.

Capabilities

Everything your safety team needs in one app

A complete driving safety toolkit in one app, not separate tools your team has to stitch together

Driving behaviour monitoring
AI-powered analysis of distraction, fatigue, harsh acceleration, harsh braking, overspeeding, and phone use, captured by phone sensors as the trip happens. No hardware required
SafetyConnect Score
A single, defensible safety metric per driver and per team. Gamified leaderboards drive recognition for safe driving, not just penalties for unsafe driving
SOS
One-tap emergency alert from the driver app. Emergency contacts and admins are notified instantly with the driver's last known location and trip context
Incident & near-miss reporting
One-tap reporting from the driver app. Photos, location, witness details, and trip context attached automatically. Closure tracked in CAPA Tracking
Audits & checklists
Configurable safety checklists for drivers in the field. Vehicle pre-trip inspections, customer site inspections, and JSAs, captured on mobile and audit-ready by design
Contextual learning (LMS)
A learning management system that adapts to the driver, not a static video library. New joiners are onboarded with defensive-driving training, then receive learning matched to their own behaviour: a driver flagged for harsh braking gets the smooth-braking module. Short micro-learning videos are followed by quizzes, with every assignment tracked to closure
Knowledge Centre
Driving SOPs, emergency protocols, safety policies, and reference documents, accessible offline on every driver's phone. Update once, push to the whole team
Operations insights
Productivity reporting beyond safety: average time at customer locations, route efficiency, and idle time. The data your operations team has been asking for, in the platform your safety team owns
MANAGED SAFETY SERVICES
Don't want to run this in-house? We'll run it with you
Driver counselling, new-process adoption, management reporting, and program reviews, optional services for customers without a dedicated safety analytics team.

Privacy & recognition

Built to protect your people, not to watch them

Every conversation about driving safety eventually comes to the same question: Are we surveilling our employees? SafetyConnect is built so the answer is always no

Read our Trust & Security commitments

ROI
Typical payback period
"Safety is a top priority, but road safety was where we were lagging behind."

We had the misfortune of losing employees to road incidents in the past. SafetyConnect was the perfect tool we were looking for. The app provided great insights into driving behaviour, which helped our employees develop corrective behaviour leading to a lower number of road incidents.

FAQ

Common questions on Driving Safety

Do you require hardware in vehicles?
No. The driver app runs on the employee's existing smartphone and uses standard phone sensors. No dashcam, no in-vehicle hardware, no installation.
What's captured outside work hours?
Nothing, by default. Business-hours-only mode is on by default. The employee can opt in to record personal trips, but the organisation can disable personal-time capture entirely.
Will it work in low-connectivity areas?
Yes. Trips are captured offline and synced when the device is back online.
Can we adjust how sensitive the detection is?
The definition of an at-risk behaviour (ATB) event follows established safety norms, so your score stays consistent and defensible across teams. Within those norms we can tune the sensitivities to your organisation's preferences, speed thresholds, harsh-braking g-force, and allowed phone use, by industry, geography, and shift.
How does coaching work?
Drivers see their own SafetyConnect Score and trip-level events in the app. Managers see group-level patterns and can route targeted coaching to specific drivers. Most customers run a weekly review cadence with their safety committee.
