Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council remains secure with Fleetclear

Darren Moore, Waste & Business Development Manager, HBBC:n “Waste management is a high-risk area and we wanted to mitigate any risk of vehicles being stolen or rolling away, to protect the public and our crews. Having looked at what was available in the marketplace and following our procurement processes we selected the system from Fleetclear."

Fleetclear's system offers instant protection against roll aways and can immobilise the vehicle until an authorised driver has been identified using either RFID or a covert actuator.

Darren continued: “Drivers and crew members are facing increasingly challenging environments as roads become busier, and there is so much concentration required with vehicles now equipped with extensive safety technology. The Fleetclear system provides reassurance and doesn’t require the driver to perform any additional tasks.”

An outstanding feature of the Fleetclear system is the robust, purpose-built CANBUS safety control unit, which incorporates fail-safe and internal monitoring systems to protect against component failure, sabotage, and other external influences.

Chris Waller, Technical Director, Fleetclear: “Our comprehensive solution requires minimal maintenance and prevents against post installation tampering”.

Fault conditions and disconnected components are immediately reported to the driver via an audible warning message, and the system includes a daily test mode, so the driver can quickly test each major component before starting a journey.

Chris added: “We provide these pro-active monitoring features to assure Fleet Managers that the system will leave the depot in full working condition each day.”

Fleetclear has been working with HBBC for over 13 years initially providing vehicle CCTV recording systems and then growing product by product. The council now uses RXLite LIVE camera systems, Cyclear cyclist safety equipment and anti-roll away technology, all provided by Fleetclear.

Moreover, HBBC is currently in the process of consolidating its safety technology, tracking and telematics by using Fleetclear Connect; an easy to use, web-based platform that combines hardware with advanced data analysis to ensure the fleet is safer, more efficient, and compliant.
