How to Create Driver Behavior Notifications

What is a Driver Behavior Notification? 

Set up driver behavior notifications to receive an email, SMS, or push notification whenever your Fleet Tracker detects:

  • Excessive speed notifications alert you when a vehicle exceeds a custom speed threshold.
  • Sudden acceleration notifications flag rapid increases in speed.
  • Hard braking notifications indicate abrupt stops.

We highly recommend adjusting the vehicle sensitivity settings before creating a driver behavior notification to ensure your notification works as expected.

  • This option allows you to choose whether to receive the notification at all times or only in certain time frames.
  • This option lets you pause driver behavior notifications for a set time, like 5 minutes, after the last alert to avoid getting too many messages at once.
  • This option lets you stop driver behavior notifications when selected vehicles are inside a chosen geo-fence area, like your HQ or a job site, so you don’t get alerts for normal activity in those zones.
