Driver Behaviour Monitoring That Helps You Coach, Not Just Catch
Speeding, harsh braking and sharp cornering cost you in fines, fuel, wear and risk. ManageVehicle's driver behaviour monitoring flags them the same day, so you can have the right conversation with the right driver.
What changes when risky driving shows up the same day, not on the fine.
BEFORE MANAGE VEHICLE
Manual, fragmented and reactive
Finding out about speeding when the fine turns up
Complaints from the public about "that truck"
Coaching based on rumours
Good drivers treated the same as risky ones
Brakes and tyres wearing out early
AFTER MANAGE VEHICLE
Connected, live and proactive
Speeding flagged the same day
Events with time, place and driver to check the facts
Reports that show who needs help and with what
Clear comparisons that recognise safe driving
Harsh braking and acceleration tracked and reduced
What Is Driver Behaviour Monitoring?
Driver behaviour monitoring uses GPS and telematics data to record how vehicles are driven, such as speeding, harsh braking, acceleration and cornering, so you can spot risk and coach drivers.
GPS & Telematics
Measures speed and movement.
Event Detection
Picks up speeding and harsh events.
ManageVehicle
Ties each event to the driver.
Reports & Coaching
Trends, alerts, and follow-up.
Product experience
From a harsh brake on the road to a better driver
Know about speeding the same day
Deal with it before the fine arrives.
Speeding events are recorded against the posted limit, with the time, place and driver. Set alerts so your team hears about serious events straight away.
What your team can do:
Speed against the posted limit
Alerts for serious speeding
Events by driver and road
Spot harsh braking, acceleration and cornering
Less risk, less wear and tear.
Harsh events are early warning signs of risky driving and they wear out brakes and tyres. ManageVehicle records each one so patterns are easy to see.
What your team can do:
Harsh braking events
Harsh acceleration events
Sharp cornering events
See how each driver is tracking
Fair, data-backed comparisons.
Use it as a driver tracking system to compare drivers on speeding and harsh events over time. Find the few who need coaching and the many who deserve a pat on the back.
What your team can do:
Events per driver
Trends over weeks and months
Compare across the fleet
Turn data into better driving
A record of what you did about it.
Log coaching conversations against the events that triggered them. Over time, you can see whether coaching is working.
What your team can do:
Add coaching notes
Track follow-ups
See improvement over time
Alerts that match how your fleet runs
The right alert to the right person.
Choose which events trigger alerts and who receives them. A small speed over the limit might go in a weekly report; a big one might need a call today.
What your team can do:
Set alert thresholds
Choose who gets notified
Different rules per vehicle type
Stop Asking "Who's Driving Like That?"
The questions that come up after a complaint or a fine, answered with fleet driver monitoring data.
Who was driving Truck 9 at 4pm?
Check the event's driver.
Was it really speeding?
See speed against the limit.
Who brakes hardest in the fleet?
Compare harsh braking by driver.
Is coaching making a difference?
Review trends over time.

Driving records that show you take safety seriously
Monitoring speed and driving behaviour is part of the reasonable steps you take under Chain of Responsibility. In NSW, a heavy vehicle caught under 10 km/h over the limit already faces a $443 fine and a demerit point. See our reckless driving monitoring checklist.
Speed records by road and time
Speeding measured against the posted limit, not just a raw number.
Coaching on record

Behaviour shows how they drove. MV Driver, our NHVR-approved EWD, shows how long.
Connected driver behaviour & Fleet operations

Speed alerts vs Driver behaviour monitoring
A speed alert tells you one thing happened. Behaviour monitoring shows you patterns and what to do about them.
Real operators, real problems, and what changed once everything sat in one system.
Brandon Manion Coaches
Problem
Maintenance across the bus fleet was difficult to track, with information spread across driver checks and maintenance records.
Result
Drivers complete daily inspections, record odometer readings and report faults directly in Manage Vehicle. The maintenance team has clear, up-to-date visibility of what needs attention. Better maintenance visibility. Fewer missed issues. A fleet that stays on top of its maintenance.
G & V Logistics
Problem
Limited visibility of where loads are while in transit, and difficulty quickly accessing evidence when an incident occurs.
Result
With telematics, G & V Logistics can see where their loads are in real time and share location details with clients immediately. In the event of an incident, they can quickly access and share relevant footage with insurers or other parties.
Alpine Civil Earthmoving
Problem
Limited visibility of how equipment is being used on site, making it difficult to track operating hours and actual equipment utilisation.
Result
Telematics gives Alpine Civil clear visibility of where equipment is and how long it has been operating on site. This helps them monitor utilisation, track equipment activity and better understand how their machines are being used. Better equipment visibility. Better utilisation tracking. More control over site operations.
Veera Transport
Problem
Jobs, PODs and invoicing were previously managed in batches, with the team waiting until the end of the week to collect everything and process invoices.
Result
Jobs are now allocated, driver approval is captured, PODs are recorded, and invoices are sent to the client within 15 minutes of job completion. Faster invoicing. Faster payments. Better cash flow.
Driver Behaviour Monitoring FAQs
It uses GPS and telematics data to record how vehicles are driven, including speeding, harsh braking, acceleration and cornering. Unlike basic driver tracking software, ManageVehicle ties each event to the driver so you can coach them.
Speeding against the posted limit, harsh braking, harsh acceleration and sharp cornering. With smart dashcams, you can add fatigue and distraction events too.
Events are recorded as they happen, and you can set alerts so serious speeding reaches your team straight away.
It's fairer than guesswork. Events come with time, place and speed, and the same data shows which drivers are doing a great job.
Yes. Set alert thresholds and rules by vehicle type, so heavy vehicles and light vehicles are treated appropriately.
Yes. Harsh acceleration, speeding and idling all push fuel use up. Pair this with Fuel Management to see the cost.
Yes. Add notes against the events that triggered the conversation and track follow-ups over time.
Driver behaviour monitoring uses your GPS or telematics device. Fatigue and distraction alerts need AI-enabled cameras.
