According to the Fleet Leader 2013 Outlook survey by GreenRoad, the top three concerns of fleet administrators include reducing fuel costs, improving maintenance expenses and ensuring safe driving. Sprint found from the US Department of Energy that costs can be reduced with better driving habits and routine maintenance.
Better driving habits include:
|
» Eliminating aggressive driving can improve gas mileage up to 33% |
|
» Eliminating idling can save up to 1/2 gallons of fuel per hour |
|
» Maintaining your vehicles may improve mileage by up to 6% and extend vehicle life, improve safety, minimize legal liability and reduce breakdowns |
|
» Driver coaching of better driving habits can prevent up 30% of accidents |
