DISTRACTED DRIVING STATISTICS ARE GROSSLY UNDERREPORTED.
What we know now is that at least 10 people die in #distracteddriving #crashes every day. What we also know is that this is underreported. Watch this second clip from episode 24 of the Straight Talk on Fleet to learn more.
In my opinion, fleet, risk and operations leaders, along with their organizations have an OBLIGATION to address and eliminate these behaviors. PERIOD. Let's stop this #epidemic!
⭐ Awareness
⭐ Technology
⭐ Policy and compliance
⭐ Safety culture

Check out my latest podcast titled: Interview with a Recovering Distracted Driver
Join me for the 34th episode of Straight Talk on Fleet. In this special episode, I host Steven Kiefer, Founder and President of The Kiefer Foundation, founded in honor of the legacy of Mitchel Kiefer, Steve’s son. Mitchel lost his life in a distracted driving crash on September 19, 2016.
In this episode, Steve and I talk about #distracteddriving, Steve’s loss story, and the goals of the foundation. The #mission of the Kiefer Foundation is to end distracted driving and all associated traffic deaths and injuries and focuses on three #pillars to support its mission: #Awareness, #Policy, and #Technology. Erin and Steve will dig into each of the pillars and share how the #fleetindustry can #getinvolved!
This initial clip gets us started but look forward to more over the coming weeks and beyond! This topic is always HOT but especially during the most dangerous time on US roadways between Memorial and Labor Day holidays.

WHAT EXACTLY IS DISTRACTED DRIVING?
Actually, it's many things and really anything that is not JUST DRIVING!
This second clip from our live episode on #distracteddriving really begs the question... How do we define distraction so we can adequately monitor and manage it?
I was lucky enough to have Nancy Murray and some other fleet professionals join this #livepodcast and share their perspectives... see the link to the full episode in the comments.

THIS WAS SO MUCH FUN!
Thanks to the Fleet Safety Geeks for this opportunity to discuss my favorite topic, SAFETY!
Key takeaways from this clip from the 7-minute episode from NAFA:
1. Integrating fleet data in one platform breeds guaranteed success in fleet management
2. If you don't have a partner who can help you surface critical insights every day, you cannot tackle issue, get ahead and run the safest and most efficient fleets.
Period.
