Mobile communications and onboard systems provider @Road, with headquarters in Fremont, Calif., has introduced an automated, digital driver log product called @Road Driver Logs

.
The service enables @Road subscribers to electronically record duty status changes and hours of service information directly into @Road on-board computers.
According to @Road, the new driver log product has been road tested by Applegate Logistics, a California trucking company.
"Using the @Road Driver Logs service, our drivers saved a minimum of 15 minutes a day. When you calculate that out at one dollar per minute, times 50 drivers, we easily save $750 a day, simply by automating hours of service reporting,” said Applegate Logistics president Mike Applegate.
@Road also introduced a state mileage report feature to record how many miles each subscriber has traveled. The information can be used to prepare quarterly fuel tax reports.
According to @Road, companies can subscribe to driver log and state mileage report services separately or as a combined service for one-, two- or three-year terms.
Price ranges for the combined service are $27.95 to $32.95 per month per subscriber, in addition to standard fees.
