RSS4495 GreenRoad, a specialist in driver performance and safety management, has announced that Big Bus Tours, the largest operator of open-top sightseeing tours in the world, is expanding its use of GreenRoad from London, Dubai and Abu Dhabi to its fleet of 17 buses touring San Francisco. It is also considering deploying GreenRoad in a further 88 buses in Hong Kong, Shanghai, Washington DC, Las Vegas and Miami.
GreenRoad has already reduced driving risk by 60 per cent for the 70 buses in London where it has been in use by 110 drivers since 2010. The blameworthy incident rate is now just 1 per 20,992km. Dubai and Abu Dhabi have also seen driving performance improve.
Using mobile and cloud technology, GreenRoad provides drivers with instant feedback about their manoeuvres using the traffic light LEDs on the dashboard as well as detailed analysis and recommendations for drivers and depot managers.
Rather than relying on the feedback from customers and the police, which tends to focus on problems, Big Bus can now understand exactly how its drivers are performing and is looking at rewarding those drivers with the safest GreenRoad scores.
