Fleet safety isn’t just accidents - it’s what your data says you did about them.
In this episode, Brian Kinniry - Director of Safety and Collision Product Management at Element Fleet Management - reveals how the shift from reactive to proactive safety programs is transforming fleet operations. With nuclear verdicts reaching seven and eight figures, traditional "train after the accident" approaches leave companies exposed to catastrophic legal and financial risk.
Brian shares real fleet data showing how connected technology and telematics are helping companies identify risk before incidents happen - including why incident rates actually increase when you deploy cameras (and why that's a good thing), and how a single cargo van training module reduced preventable incidents by 35%.
This episode is sponsored by Element Fleet Management.
If your organization depends on a fleet of vehicles, it’s time to think about your fleet as a strategic asset.
