What actually happens after a fleet experiences a multi-million dollar accident? 

In this episode of Fleet Forward Podcast, leaders from NOV and Element Fleet Management share the real-world conversations, policy changes, and cross-department challenges that happen when safety, liability, operations, HR, legal, and leadership all collide. 

From telematics adoption and driver accountability to policy consistency and risk mitigation, this episode breaks down what it really takes to build a safer fleet culture without slowing business down. 

You’ll hear: 

• How one $3 million claim triggered major internal policy discussions 

• Why fleet safety can’t live in a silo 

• The biggest mistakes companies make when rolling out safety initiatives 

• How leading fleets use data and telematics to improve accountability
