RTA Announces New Logo, Broader Brand
RTA launched a new logo, revealing a more modern design that focuses on helping fleet operations succeed. With it, the company also rebranded itself to RTA instead of RTA Fleet Management Software.
“While we've always been RTA Fleet Management Software, this past year we have also started offering an independent DVIR and Inspection app, as well as telematics and camera solutions,” RTA CEO Josh Turley said. “With more products in the works, we knew we'd need to broaden our brand.”
“The other major influence has been this monumental shift in focus that we've had over the past three years, from being just RTA Fleet Management Software to being RTA, The Fleet Success Company. Our purpose has literally been ‘We help fleets succeed,’ and we felt it was time that our brand and mission reflect that. Fleet Management Software will still be a cornerstone offering from RTA, but it is really just a part of what we do and how we help fleets find new ways to be successful every day.”
The new, modern logo represents this shift.

But as entire steering wheels are lifted, the victims are left in lurch as the replacement can take weeks to months due to shortages arising from the scheme.
Experts suggest using a club lock or disk lock on steering wheels to avoid becoming a victim, the report said. Parking in a garage or a well-lit area can also help.
