KUALA LUMPUR: Using real-time monitoring technology on moving lorries can help reduce the risk of accidents caused by human factors, says a Universiti Teknologi Malaysia expert.
"With this data, fleet managers can immediately warn if drivers are speeding or driving dangerously,” said the university’s Automotive Development Centre director. Recently, several road accidents involving heavy vehicles, especially container trucks, resulting in deaths have been reported and most recently, an incident in which a container trailer overturned on the northbound North-South Expressway near Simpang Renggam-Machap, Johor, which claimed the life of a motorcyclist.
"When they pursue a tight itinerary or try to increase their income by taking more trips, they experience fatigue which causes drivers to lose focus, be slow to react, and be prone to making mistakes when reacting to emergency situations. He suggested that the authorities must also hold accountable the fleet operators and companies responsible for vehicle maintenance and driver management, rather than just going after the drivers and vehicles involved.
