Solution	After evaluating multiple options, IWP decided to implement EROAD’s Clarity Dashcam across its entire truck fleet. The Clarity Dashcam is a part of the Clarity Connected system, which automatically sends video clips to the cloud-based MyEROAD portal when triggered by a safety event. This feature provided video evidence that quickly exonerated IWP drivers on multiple occasions. Additionally, the drivers started using the cameras proactively by using the manual trigger button to capture footage of events on the road, such as erratic driving and being cut off by another vehicle. The Clarity Connected system also enhanced driver coaching by providing video footage that removed the ambiguity often associated with safety events on the road. Furthermore, it helped with accident prevention by providing video footage of safety events that helped IWP identify driving trends that could potentially lead to accidents in the future.
