ONO

Andrew Drewary FCILT MARRM of Road Safety Smart Ltd, says that “60% of the incidents he investigates show organisational failings.” This was a key topic of discussion at the Health and Safety Event 2024 where Driving for Better Business staged a mock trial. Andrews discussions gave awareness to three key points when investigating incidents: 💡 Assess human factors impacting driver performance (fatigue, distractions, medical issues) and whether organisational factors contribute to these risks. 💡 Review driver qualifications, collision history, training, understanding of policies, and reasons for policy deviations. 💡 Identify responsibility and processes for vehicle loading, roadworthiness checks, route planning, and safety-focused driving policies, ensuring these are well-communicated and enforced across the team. At ONO we focus on a no-blame culture when collecting incident data from drivers and we can stick to those values due to our impartiality in FNOL collection. This helps fleet organisations have a clear idea on their incident history and this can help do exactly what Andrew is highlighting: “the crucial thing is to act on the insights you discover. In this way, routine collision investigation can help prevent fleets from suffering serious or fatal collisions, as well as driving down incidental vehicle damage and insurance claims.” The full article, along with the mock trial videos can be found here: 

A must join webinar being hosted by Brake, the road safety charity Vehicle incidents have a huge effect on people’s lives personally and professionally. As an employer it’s important to understand how you can help and support during this extremely stressful situation.

Very glad to see this being highlighted by Fleet News. The clocks 'springing forward' or 'falling back' has a significant impact on incident figures. You may think an extra hour in bed would help...but no, it's the dazzling sun and road conditions that cause issues with the extra hour. Take extra care next week as you start to adjust.

Thank you IATR for sharing this insightful article. 📹 As insurance fraud continues to rise, dash cams are playing a critical role in capturing valuable evidence. It also highlights the importance of fleets using dash cams to analyse driver behaviour as over 70% of fleets crashes in the US are due to distracted driving!! However, cameras are just one piece of the puzzle. ONO steps in to offer a comprehensive database for not only storing dash cam footage but also managing case reports, notes, and documents. With insurance costs surging, having both video evidence and a centralised platform is key to building a solid defense. #InsuranceFraud #DashCams #SaaS #ONO

Managing your fleet incidents is more than just reporting any claims to your insurer. What are your internal processes? If it’s one big spreadsheet and a ton of files and emails you need to use ONO. One.Single.Source.Of.Reference It’s great to hear the general usage comments from our fleets, they’ve got their incident management covered 🙌🏼💪🏻

A busy two days at Highways UK where our CEO was exhibiting. It was great to catch up with some of our customers and also Route Reports who harness Ai technology to help Local Authorities manage road conditions (just one of their many services). The importance of a maintained road network is crucial as this morning we ironically had a pothole incident reported via ONO. Driver off the road, wheel replacement needed and he has no idea how to get this compensated?! We are actively building out our LA connections to get these reports over instantly. Quicker reports, quicker resolution, and quicker road fix!

A ‘tank off?!’ Why not! Looking forward to seeing the two wonderfully competitive ladies Jessica Robinson and Jodie W. have a tank race next week. Stay safe ladies and don’t forget to download ONO in case of any incidents 💥

Do you know? As a fleet operator there are a million things to do and a driver having an incident is an unexpected disruption to business operations. The natural reaction is to deal with the incident quickly and pass to your preferred claims team internally or externally. That’s where many feel the responsibility stops. All those emails flying back and forth and all those pieces of evidence….where do you store, manage and reference? (In ONO we hear your cry 😉) By not correctly handling incident data you are missing out on a range of insights that will help in key areas: ☮️Driver Wellbeing 📈Insurance Premium Pricing 🚦Proactive risk management See what your insurer sees….and more.
