Circles* help keep drivers engaged and connected with other drivers. Within the Circles community, drivers can encourage each other and share safe driving accountability.
There are two categories of Circles within the application: Work Team Circles and Custom Circles.
- Work Team Circles*: My Work Team is automatically created through your company’s hierarchy so that drivers are assigned to a Circle with their managers. You will also be able to view and interact with other drivers on your team. Tap their name to view their overall driving scores (if sharing is enabled).
- Custom Circles*: A Circle can be created by any user and can include any other users. To create a Circle, tap the Create A Circle button. You will be asked to name the Circle and then tap Create Circle Now.
Once a Circle has been created, the Invite Code that was generated can be shared with other drivers using Mentor. To access the code, tap on the Circle you created and tap the Edit link in the top right corner. This shows you the Circle name and whether you have sharing turned on. The Invite Code is available as well.
If you would like to leave a Custom Circle, tap the Leave button and choose OK when prompted.
Sharing your information can help you stay connected to your team and will let you know how you are driving compared to the rest of your co-workers.
To share your information, tap on a Circle. Then, tap Edit at the top right corner of the screen. Toggle the button to share your information and then tap the arrow at the top left corner of the screen to return to the Circle.
Once you share your information and select your chosen Circle, you will see two tabs. The first is the list of drivers in the Circle and (if they have enabled sharing) their scores. Tap on a driver to see their driving scores, including their FICO® Safe Driving Score, total trips, miles / KM driven, and hours driven, as well as the number of assigned Playlist items and their ratings for Acceleration, Braking, Cornering, Distraction, and Speeding.
The second tab is where you can message the entire team or an individual driver. Send messages of encouragement and compete for the top spot on your Circle’s leaderboard.
Note: Personal and group messages may be up to 160 characters in length. Some functions, such as sending photos and other attachments, editing messages, and deleting messages, are not currently supported. All messages will be saved for two weeks and then deleted from the Mentor system.
