Three HOS ELD benefits fleets should know about.
1. Compliance with Federal Regulations: ELDs are required by federal law for commercial vehicles in the US and ensure compliance with the Electronic Logging Device mandate set by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA).
2. Improved Safety: ELDs promote safe driving habits by tracking hours of service (HOS) and alerting drivers when they are approaching or have exceeded their HOS limits. This helps reduce the risk of driver fatigue and improve overall safety on the road.
3. Increased Efficiency: ELDs automate and streamline the HOS ELD reporting process, reducing the time and resources previously spent on manual record keeping. This increases the efficiency and accuracy of HOS tracking and reporting, which can help improve fleet operations and reduce costs.
