MV Transportation Expands Lytx Driver Safety Program to Raise the Bar for Fleet Safety
Providing safe, reliable and affordable transportation services is paramount to MV Transportation, the leading provider of paratransit services and the largest privately owned passenger transportation contracting firm in the United States.With more than a decade of superior safety results since adopting the Lytx® Driver Safety Program, MV Transportation expanded its use of Lytx’s video-based safety program to more than 1,500 additional vehicles, leveraging the MV +AI-powered Lytx SF Series DriveCam® event recorders. The deployment increased coverage of the company’s fleet vehicles in three states, bringing the total number of Lytx-protected vehicles to more than 8,000 – one of the largest public transportation deployments.
MV initially deployed the Driver Safety Program for approximately 6,500 vehicles as the company sought to raise the bar for their safety program by using analytics and technology.
Watch how MV Transportation raised their safety program's standards by using advanced analytics and technology with the Lytx SF-series. They easily upgraded devices with the latest MV+AI technology, and realized measurable results following the expansion to even more of their vehicles.
The Challenge
- Raise the bar for the MV Transportation safety program through the use of analytics, coaching, and technology.
- Increase the opportunities to identify risk and unsafe behaviors.
- Cultivate an ongoing, proactive approach to safety and driver improvement.
The Results
- Back-to-back years of record-setting safety performance
- 71% reduction in overall frequency of events
- 67% reduction in overall severity of events
- 78% reduction in drivers illegally proceeding through red lights and stop signs
- 69% reduction in late responses
- 64% reduction in other distractions
Without the video telematics and having that increased safety functionality, identifying that additional risk and identifying those additional unsafe behaviors can be next to impossible.
