If and when a driver approaches an area of concern, they will receive an immediate notification to their in-cab mobile device and the vehicle will be limited to idle.

Fleets that have integrated the E-Smart technology have reported a significant decrease in speed-related infringements and accidents, and an savings among toll-related fines, Platform Science officials said in a press release.

‘’E-Smart is gaining tremendous momentum in our mission to improve road safety,” said Mathieu Boivin, CEO at E-Smart, in a press release. “We are showing the industry that intelligent speed adaptation, an active technology, is the solution for speed-related incidents with proven reduction results of over 90%.”
