With so many fleet safety vendors claiming to offer advanced telematics and superior features, identifying the solutions that are actually able to drive meaningful change can be daunting.
What is common among these solutions is their approach to enforcing driver behavior: too often, they focus on punitive measures. While this may address certain behaviors in the moment, the effects tend to be superficial and not long-lasting. The reason? These legacy devices and solutions focus on simply correcting poor driving actions and surfacing risk rather than rewarding safe behaviors and addressing the whys behind these behaviors—driver engagement and overall safety culture.
Netradyne is the only vendor that positions positive reinforcement at the heart of the safety program—an approach that doesn’t just lower incident rates, but also fosters a sense of autonomy and purpose to cultivate a stronger, more supportive fleet safety culture that retains more drivers.
All of this starts with Netradyne’s technology and the specific way in which the platform is designed.
When evaluating solutions, it can be tempting to just go through a list of features and check off the boxes.
But you would be passing up a vital opportunity to fully understand—and leverage—the features that contribute to driver behavior, risk reduction, and overall fleet efficiency.
After all, every fleet safety solution promises some combination of risk detection and driver coaching features—but how can you accurately evaluate these products when trialing them or undertaking a proof of concept?
Pay attention to these details:
Accuracy
Risk detection is one of the most important features in any fleet safety and telematics solution, and accuracy is key. Reliable alerts that minimize false positives and false negatives ultimately benefit both drivers and safety managers.
The only way to achieve a high level of accuracy is by having analyzed a significant amount of training data. Netradyne has achieved up to 99% accuracy*—almost unheard of—thanks to the sheer amount of data it has analyzed, captured by our advanced technology.
Netradyne’s devices are the only ones on the market with the option for 270-degree visibility available from one device. And our AI is trained on the equivalent of over 80 years of video, or 15 billion miles of driving. Instead of just tracking when incidents occur like most fleet safety solutions, Netradyne analyzes every minute of driving, which means it can provide a much more accurate, comprehensive, and fair view of a driver’s day.
This is one of the biggest differentiators between Netradyne and other solutions. Whereas some devices will simply point out the two stop signs a driver missed—focusing only on errors—Netradyne will also highlight the other 521 stop signs where the driver made a full stop and their overall 99.6% stop sign compliance. This gives both drivers and managers a more realistic view of risk for that behavior so they can determine if this is the area that really needs coaching.
The completeness of this data has also made it possible for Netradyne to build an ROI model that can correlate with a certain level of accuracy how safer driving (measured with higher GreenZone® Scores) tangibly results in fewer accidents. Specifically:
A 2022 fleet safety report found that there are, on average, approximately 4.5 accidents per driver per year, while according to Automotive Fleet, the average accident costs between $16,000 and $75,000—and that’s not counting incidents with injuries and fatalities.
Based on these numbers, we can assume that a fleet with 100 vehicles that improves its GreenZone Scores by 150 points (the average improvement that Netradyne has seen with first-year customers) could save between approximately $8,000,000 to $9,000,000 in accident costs—in the first year.
Load One, one of the three largest premium transportation and expedite companies in the United States, saw a 59% reduction in claims in just the first year a er installing Netradyne’s Driver•i® camera system. Year two was
“There's no question. We can look at our accident rates before we had the cameras and then after and see a direct correlation in the reduction of accidents and the number of incidents. Easily, Netradyne paid for itself in the first year. If I have to look at ROI with safety technology, I think cameras were the fastest turnaround ROI that paid for itself of anything we've done.”

Driver advocacy & retention
While Netradyne has a range of advanced coaching features, it also goes far beyond simply telling drivers what they should do be er. Netradyne’s entire platform is built from the ground up with driver advocacy at its core.
How can drivers self-coach effectively without constant intervention from a safety manager? How can fleets motivate drivers with a system that supports their autonomy and growth? Netradyne empowers drivers with actionable, near-real-time insights and positive reinforcement, helping them recognize their strengths and areas for improvement independently with coaching features like:
Netradyne is also the only provider that provides compound alerts, which show the severity of combinations of events so you can differentiate and coach the most impactful incidents. For example, hard braking while driving distracted is more severe than hard braking alone.
Combined with Netradyne’s other unique proprietary features such as the GreenZone Score and DriverStars, this approach not only enhances drivers’ skills but also supports retention by creating a supportive environment that rewards positive driving behavior and gives drivers confidence that their fleets have their backs.
“Exonerations go a long way. When a driver has a not-at-fault incident, we share it in our safety meetings, and it helps with the driver buy-in. The cameras actually become a retention tool.”
