Motive released Positive Driving, a new AI model that automatically identifies positive driver behaviors, such as quickly reacting to obstacles to avoid collisions or creating a safe following distance when cut off by another vehicle.
“With Positive Driving, we’re giving companies an easy way to recognize excellence on the road in order to build trust and increase employee engagement,” says Hemant Banavar, chief product officer at Motive. “By automatically surfacing the moments that matter, Positive Driving turns everyday decisions into powerful coaching opportunities that lead to safer fleets and stronger teams.”
Key takeaways:
· Positive Driving enables managers to lead coaching sessions with recognition, foster a more motivating safety culture, and reduce accidents and turnover.
· Motive’s Positive Driving feature is powered by highly accurate AI to automatically identify smart driving behaviors before the safety team validates them within seconds. Combined with Motive’s unsafe behavior detection, Positive Driving provides a comprehensive view of driver performance, enabling managers to coach constructively, celebrate smart decisions, and run safer programs.
· Positive Driving provides Alert Driving, which identifies when a driver shows exceptional awareness by quickly reacting to unexpected obstacles, such as swerving vehicles, road debris, animals, or pedestrians; and Safe Distancing, which detects when a driver slows down quickly and creates a safe following distance after being cut off by another vehicle.
