Crum & Forster to Offer DriveCam Services to Policyholders

Crum & Forster (C&F) will now offer DriveCam’s managed services to its policyholders as part of C&F’s loss control/safety management services.

DriveCam addresses safety by combining data and video analytics with real-time driver feedback and coaching, resulting in reductions in cost and fuel consumption. DriveCam accomplishes this using its Driver Science Engine. Through a process of scoring, prioritizing and tracking the results of driving behaviors, this model identifies behavioral improvement opportunities for increased safety. In-cab video captures driving behavior, which is objectively reviewed and scored, then passed on to the fleet for use in coaching drivers.

Fleets manage the DriveCam program through DriveCam Online, a web-based online portal. Iintegrated into DriveCam’s DC3 video event recorder and the DriveCam Online reporting service, DriveCam’s fuel management option combines real-time, in-cab feedback with online reporting and coaching to improve fuel efficiency – by up to 12 percent – and lower emissions. DriveCam focuses on the driver – specifically on the three driving behaviors that have the greatest impact on fuel efficiency: efficient or “smooth” driving, idling and speeding.
