School Bus GPS System
School buses are under pressure to not only provide a safe, reliable service to school children and their parents, but also to run efficiently and provide a profitable return.GPS based vehicle tracking system helps them to solve both the problems.It helps to improve safety of the school children also helps to run the fleet efficiently which leads to reduction of the running cost.So once the running cost get reduced the institution could offer the transportation services at a low cost which will help to improve the goodwill of the institution.
Let's see how the GPS based tracking will be helpful.
Safety:
Track all buses in real-time so parents can be notified of the actual arrival time of the buses, minimizing the time children have to wait, exposed to bad weather or other dangers. Alerts can also be set up so that fleet managers receive a message the instant buses enter a no-go zone, or drivers engage in unsafe driving.Monitor bus driving patterns to make sure drivers operate their vehicles efficiently, eliminating unnecessary idling, observing speed limits and not taking detours. And because GPS tracking is considered an anti-theft device by most insurance companies, you can save on insurance premiums, too.
Avoid time-consuming manual collection of fleet activity needed for state reports . With GPS tracking this information is automatically collected and reported, which saves time and minimizes errors for both drivers and fleet managers.
Improve the regularity and timeliness of preventative maintenance with automatic GPS tracking on vehicles. Know in advance when bus servicing is due to minimize downtime and unwanted breakdowns, as well as allowing sufficient time to schedule substitute buses. Accurate mileage tracking also means better warranty recovery — another cost saving.
