“We become not a melting pot but a beautiful mosaic. Different people, different beliefs, different yearnings, different hopes, different dreams.” — U.S. President Jimmy Carter (1977–1981)
The staff of Fleet Management Weekly wishes you a peaceful day of reflection on this Presidents Day.
There’s no one-size-fits-all solution to prevent vehicle crashes. With more than 240 million Americans getting behind the wheel each year—and an estimated 77 percent of employed Americans commuting each day—unexpected incidents are an unfortunate inevitability.
Even with advances to driving technology coming online in recent years designed specifically to make roads safer—think of the rear-view camera display on your dashboard, as well as parking or lane change assist systems that account for ‘blind spots’—the number of fatal incidents on American roads remains relatively steady year-over-year.
In this blog, we’ll break down how much vehicle crash incidents and fatalities impact the larger economy, and steps that businesses can take to make their driving workforce safer.
Ford Pro has developed a new technology to streamline many of the important tasks that delivery drivers perform while making stops. Ford Pro Delivery Assist technology automatically turns off the engine, closes windows, locks doors and activates hazard lights when delivery van drivers make stops.
The technology also boosts peace of mind for drivers and fleet managers by ensuring vans remain secure while drivers leave the vehicle to make deliveries. Furthermore, it is designed to reduce the number of tasks that drivers need to remember, enabling them to concentrate on drop-offs and their surroundings.
The technology is available on van variants of 2025 E-Transit and EcoBlue diesel-powered Transit with automatic transmission.
