PersonTrafik is set to address today’s biggest public transport issues. Topics aim to address the challenge of creating comfort for passengers with attractive and adaptable, but eco-friendly solutions. The event will showcase buses, taxis, rail-based vehicles, traffic information, environmental technology, charging infrastructure, and more.
Key Bus Expo Telematics Topics in 2022/23
This year, while there’s much happening in the world of telematics, we’ve identified two interrelated topics that have gathered a lot of interest, both in the industry and among our clients. The golden thread, as we’ve long known, is driver behavior. Here’s what bus expo attendees should be interested in in 2022/23:
Safety Telematics
NHTSA research confirms that over 90% of accidents are the result of driver error. But speeding and risky driving habits can be surprisingly easy to change – when you empower drivers with real-time feedback and smart incentives, and stay “in the know” with dashboards, alerts and management-by-exception reports. The bonus? Reduced fuel costs, emissions, maintenance costs – and protection for your reputation.
Did you know that safety telematics can be deployed as a software only solution as well?
Here’s how GreenRoad is making strides in this area.
Reducing Environmental Impact and Emissions
Did you know that improving driver behaviour can actually reduce the cost of the transition to EVs?
- Eco-driving extends the range of each battery charge – often by 20%-30%! That means your buses spend less time spent “recharging”, with serious implications for your charging infrastructure.
- Eco-driving also lengthens battery and tyre life, translating into lower lifetime costs for your new EV buses.
- Just as important, eco-driving reduces ICE fuel consumption by 3%-7%, and emissions by even more!
Learn how GreenRoad can help you reduce your energy consumption.
