So far many public bus companies all over the world have been in cooperation with CareDrive. Let’s take a case of XXX company from Mexico to whom CareDrive customizes a solution.  

XXX is a large bus company in Mexico. Since early 2015, CareDrive has been offering XXX a complete solution including Driver Fatigue Monitor MR688, Anti Collision Warning System AWS650 and fleet management gps tracking system MDVR. With the solution, XXX successfully saved about 760 thousand US dollars and reduced 92% accidents compared to 2014.

Installations:

On a bus installed with AWS650, when the system detects that there is a potential danger of front collision or lane departure, it will make an alarm so the driver can take actions in time to avoid an accident. Also, AWS650 will output alarm signals and video to the fleet management center. With the signal output and remote monitoring through MDVR, fleet managers can understand the status of the driver and road conditions to find out the reasons for alarms.In this way, XXX has successfully formulated well-directed management policies and put them into practice. Business costs are proved to be lowered largely.

Video output of forward collision alarm on the bus:

The same way, alarm signal and video will be output when lane departure warning occurs. Following shows relevant records of lane departure warning:

Fleet managers still can further get to know the driver driving status, road conditions and reasons for alarms through a query and analysis on history alarm images.

Next let’s take a look at how MR688 works on a bus. On a bus installed with MR688, when MR688 identifies the driver becomes drowsy, distracted or drive at too high speed, it will send audible alarms to remind the driver stop to take a break, or drive with full attention, or control the speed. When MR688 emit an alarm, it at the same time outputs signals to the fleet management center. With the signal output and remote monitoring through MDVR, fleet managers can understand the status of the drive and take measures accordingly. MR688 successfully help XXX realize effective fleet management and reduce operation cost.
