Your company might be legally obligated to let drivers know what video data is captured about them. Share this article with your drivers so they know what information is generated by the camera, stored in Fleet, and what it is used for.
AI Dashcams can detect unsafe driving behaviors and notify drivers with in-cab audio alerts. These prompts are designed to encourage safer driving over time.

The driver-facing camera analyzes a driver’s head position, and their interaction with objects, such as cell phones. If the driver’s behavior is outside of its normal range for too long, the camera may classify it as unsafe driving behavior, and trigger an in-cab alert.
The AI then classifies the event, and a video is uploaded to Fleet.
The camera calibrates the driver’s head position during the first 30 seconds of a journey and every 30 mins thereafter. The AI calibration can be disrupted if the driver is:
-
Wearing glasses, a hat, or a mask
-
Frequently touching their face

The road-facing camera monitors driving behavior and the vehicle’s proximity to other road users.
The type of lens that the camera is fitted with can affect how close and how fast objects appear.

Tailgating |
|
|
The vehicle is dangerously close to the vehicle in front. The driver does not have enough time to stop if the vehicle in front slows down. The vehicle in front may have entered the driver’s lane suddenly, or the driver got too close due to unsafe driving. The vehicle must be traveling over 25 mph (40 km/h). Note: Even if tailgating videos are disabled in your AI driving assistance settings, videos triggered by other events will be analyzed, and tailgating may be detected. This is because the AI can detect tailgating after the event. Preview of first audio alert Preview of second audio alert |

Pedestrian ahead |

|
The vehicle is close to a pedestrian or cyclist. The vehicle must be traveling 6-18 mph (10-29 km/h). Audio alert preview |
Videos can be falsely triggered, usually when an AI Dashcam lens is obstructed or in the wrong position.
