In your organization, both company-specific and eDriving's scoring systems may be used to effectively identify, manage, and mitigate the risk of drivers being involved in incidents, collisions, or violations while driving for work purposes.
eDriving's predictive scoring approach, DriverINDEX scores all reported events — incidents, collisions, license violations, third-party telematics (if applicable), and RoadRISK®, eDriving’s validated risk-assessment questionnaire. Company Points are customized to each employer and may vary based on state, provincial, and national penalty or demerit point systems.
Company Points systems, distinct from DriverINDEX and governmental demerit point systems, reflect an organization's tolerance for risk and associated behaviors, aiming to manage high-risk drivers and foster a Crash-Free Culture®. Typically, these systems focus on scoring collisions and license violations, including but not limited to:
- Alcohol- or drug-related driving offenses
- License suspension or revocation
- Reckless driving convictions
- Hit-and-run incidents
- At-fault involvement in fatal collisions
- Speeding exceeding 30 mph / 48.2 km/h over the limit
Various nations also implement penalty point systems, also known as demerit point systems, wherein driving privileges are impacted based on accrued points from traffic violations or other infractions. The specifics of these demerit schemes vary by jurisdiction and often include fines or other penalties associated with particular offenses or upon reaching a specified point threshold.
Usually, all three scoring approaches synergize within a single system to cultivate a Crash-Free Culture and pinpoint the most at-risk drivers for targeted support and coaching.
