AngelTrax debuts new driver behavior feature for MotoTrax
With instant alerts, advanced scoring algorithms and easy-to-read comparison charts, the Driver Behavior feature delivers critical information in a user-friendly interface.
Mobile video surveillance provider AngelTrax debuted a powerful new tool for fleets of any size — the new MotoTrax™ Driver Behavior feature, designed specifically to help fleet managers instantly identify their riskiest drivers in real time.
Driver Behavior is the most advanced in an impressive array of features in MotoTrax, the AngelTrax online surveillance manager. This optional feature equips transportation directors with the data and analysis needed to pinpoint the drivers and behaviors that can cost the company the most in insurance, litigation and maintenance.
With instant alerts, advanced scoring algorithms and easy-to-read comparison charts, the Driver Behavior feature delivers critical information in a user-friendly interface.
Live, in-browser scoring can be accessed securely from any location with an active Internet connection, providing real-time vehicle, group and fleet comparisons. Fleet directors can now administer stat-driven driver coaching with undeniable video of the incident and the moments prior. Video clips correlating with event alerts are downloaded directly to your computer, to reveal the cause and effect of hard braking, swerving and other aggressive or distracted driving habits.
"Instead of relying on a third party to send you only the video clips they think you ought to see, you now have access to every video clip tagged with an event marker," explained AngelTrax President/CEO Richie Howard. "When a fleet manager is coaching a driver, showing the actual video of their own driving habits can make all the difference between an OK driver and the new safest driver in the company."
Brian Buchanan, HDR’s transit program management lead, discusses how agencies can strengthen governance, anticipate risk and deliver large-scale projects more effectively.
The actions, and more, are part of the new and enhanced measures outlined in the “Advancing Safety on the TTC: 2026 Focus Areas Plan” report, which is going to the TTC Board on June 3.
Supported by a $56,500 grant from the Federal Railroad Administration, the program will combine targeted public education campaigns with specialized training for SFRTA employees, contractors, and regional partners.
Participants include representatives from the CCSAO, the Chicago Police Department, CTA, the Cook County Sheriff’s Office, the U.S. Attorney’s Office, the FBI, the ATF, the DEA, Metra, and Pace.
The phased introduction of the cameras for station staff follows the successful rollout of the devices with TTC Special Constables and Provincial Offenses Officers in January 2025.
The plan includes investments in cleaner vehicles and upgraded stations, NJT LiveView to provide real-time GPS tracking of train and light rail service, enhanced safety initiatives through a new Real Time Crime Center, and the debut of a redesigned NJ TRANSIT mobile app.
New research from MTI shows a sharp increase in attacks on public-facing transit employees, with North America accounting for a significant share and bus drivers among the most affected.
