Vehicle Tracking Solutions (VTS), a fleet management solutions company, announces enhancements to its Silent Passenger software designed to streamline user experiences for commercial fleet drivers and fleet managers. The updates to SP Logbook enable drivers to focus on safe driving practices, and the fleet manager to avoid disruption to business.

SP Logbook Version 1.5 includes the following updates:  

  • Improved accuracy of Rest Time Counter, Shift/Drive Reset and Cycle Reset
  • "Easy" activation of Adverse Driving Conditions and Short Haul Exemption
  • New two-way messaging for real-time communication
  • DVIR submissions without an internet connection
  • Multi-time zone support for a single motor carrier
  • HOS violation reporting

Silent Passenger Logbook is a complete solution, including 24/7 customer support, for managing and meeting FMCSA Electronic Logging Device (ELD) requirements. It integrates ELDs into fleet management solutions, making it simple for drivers to accurately track and record driving hours for maximum compliance, the company says. To keep business a priority, SP Logbook delivers features designed to reduce operating costs by improving communication for drivers with office staff. In addition to ELD support, SP Logbook mobile app for iOS and Android offers a full suite of DOT compliance management features, including DVIR safety inspections and IFTA fuel tax.

“Unlike paper log books, ELDs accurately record a driver’s on-duty driving time. ELDs, combined with driver behavior scoring and training, are highly effective in helping fleets improve safety,” said Ryan Wilkinson, Chief Technology Officer. “Using Silent Passenger, drivers can also easily connect with fleet managers to help ensure best practices in compliance are being applied, while reducing administration cost and increasing efficiency of record-keeping and inspections.”
