SAN DIEGO – May 24, 2007 – DriveCam Inc., a global Driver Risk Management company, announced today it has been named Frost & Sullivan’s 2007 North American Class 6-8 Truck Driving Behavior Monitoring and Safety Enhancement Systems Product Innovation Leadership of the Year Award recipient. DriveCam was recognized at Frost & Sullivan’s 2007 Best Practices Awards Banquet in San Antonio yesterday. Frost & Sullivan’s Award for Product Innovation Leadership of the Year is presented annually to the company that has demonstrated excellence in new products and technology within their industry. Frost & Sullivan recognized DriveCam for advancing the market for heavy truck safety enhancement systems with its innovative behavior-based risk mitigation solution. DriveCam’s solution combines predictive software and analytics capabilities, tens of thousands of actual events demonstrating risky driving behaviors and deep transportation and behavior-based safety experience. Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration research indicates that the average cost of an accident caused by a large truck involving fatalities is approximately $3.4 million while that of an accident involving injuries is $217,000. “DriveCam Inc. recognized fleets’ need for a solution that would help them identify and correct risky driving behaviors that could result in accidents,” said Sandeep Kar, senior industry analyst, Frost & Sullivan. “DriveCam has propelled heavy truck safety enhancement technologies to a new level with an effective risk management solution that enables commercial and government fleets across industries to proactively address risky driving behavior, increase the safety of their mobile workforces and reduce operating costs.” DriveCam’s exception-based video event recorder is mounted on the windshield behind the rearview mirror and captures sights and sounds inside and outside the vehicle. Exceptional forces such as hard braking, swerving and collision cause the recorder to save the critical seconds immediately before and after the triggered event. Saved events are analyzed and used in ongoing driver coaching programs to improve behavior and mitigate driver risk. “We are honored to receive Frost & Sullivan’s Product Innovation Leadership of the Year Award,” said Bruce Moeller, president and CEO of DriveCam Inc. “DriveCam is committed to helping fleets reduce preventable vehicle accidents and related operating costs and we are continuously striving to improve the value proposition of our solution offering.” DriveCam recently became the first Driver Risk Management company to offer cellular upload to fleets, simplifying deployment and support, eliminating investment in Wi-Fi infrastructure and bringing Driver Risk Management to fleets, including long-haul trucking, sales and service fleets, that typically employ drivers who do not regularly return to a home base.
