National Seaways Freight ‘game-changing’ installation of Camera Telematics’ four-camera solution.
‘Street Angel’ helps future proof the fleet from incidents of insurance fraud on hazardous roads
Camera Telematics, the leaders in vehicle camera technology to reduce fleet risk, today announced a partnership with National Seaways Freight, whereby the haulier will install Camera Telematics’ multi-camera ‘Street Angel’ solution across their fleet of articulated trucks to provide an accurate recording of any roadside incident and the availability of robust, video evidence in the event of an insurance claim.
Based in Ireland, National Seaway Freight transport goods throughout the country, with eighty-per cent of journeys taking place in rural areas with narrow roads, so it was vital that a multi-camera solution was introduced to provide visibility of the entire vehicle and the subsequent recordings be admissible as evidence in an insurance claim.
Street Angel delivers fleet operators unrivalled first notification of loss (FNOL) data in the event of an accident or incident on the road, thereby reducing the cost of claims and protecting the business and drivers against incidents of insurance fraud.
Using superfast 4G connectivity, the Street Angel continually transmits data associated with vehicle speed, GPS position and shock axis sensor to a designated SSL encrypted server ensuring data is safe and secure. In the event of a collision, the unit automatically transmits all its data for that event. This data is accurate and admissible evidence, should it be required to defend or mitigate an insurance claim.
“For us, Street Angel has been a complete game-changer”, comments JP O’Sullivan, Operations Supervisor, National Seaways Freight: “We spoke to several onboard camera providers, but it was clear from the outset that the complete package offered by Street Angel, including a multi-camera solution, no SD card and accurate tracking via the Street Angel app would provide us with a significant reduction in the risk associated with running our fleet.”
JP O’ Sullivan concludes: “Camera Telematics has been real assistance in helping us future-proof our fleet from potential insurance fraud. Also, the availability of a 360-degrees system ensures that we have the maximum flexibility to monitor cargo, vehicle side, reversing and driver angles, and forward facing. Two hundred hours of footage using 5 x FHD 1080p channels is achieved with 2TB HHD.”
Mark Stamper, group managing director at Camera Telematics comments: “Street Angel not only delivers National Seaways Freight peace-of-mind in ensuring safer driving and complete protection against fraudulent insurance claims, but also the reassurance of having the most advanced onboard vehicle camera available, which unlike other cameras, uniquely delivers all the features required on one device.”
