In-Cab Speeding Alerts

Please note that this feature is in Beta.

In-cab voice coaching alerts provide your drivers with immediate feedback to correct speeding violations while driving across roads with different speed limits. The in-cab voice coach will alert the driver if the vehicle speed is either a set miles per hour (mph) or percent above the posted limit.  

This feature leads to two key benefits for your fleets:

1. Overall reduction in unsafe behaviors
2. Fuel savings: speeding drivers have a highway MPG that is 2.7% lower than all other drivers
   

After in-cab speeding alerts are enabled, the CM31 or CM32 device will play this sound when the vehicle has exceeded the speed limit for 5 seconds and will repeat every 10 seconds until the vehicle reduces to a speed below the threshold.

Terms

• Speeding: Driving over the speed limit of the road

• Percentage over the speed limit: The in-cab alert triggers after the driver exceeds a percentage above the speed limit.
• Time spent over the speed limit before alert. The default value is 60 seconds and can be customized to any value over 60 seconds.
