NUMBER OF THE WEEK
47% of crashes are associated with the highest risk 10% of drivers
Number of the week: the highest risk 10% of drivers accounted for 47% of crashes in Samsara's Compounding Risk Report.
47%
The proportion of crashes associated with the highest risk 10% of drivers in Samsara's research.
And:
76%
The proportion associated with the highest risk 30%.
Those numbers point towards a different philosophy for fleet safety.
Do not treat every driver and every alert equally.
Identify where risk is concentrating.
Then intervene.
