Under the agreement, the IT1000 forward-facing camera will be fitted across 65 vehicle transporters within the company’s general and premier fleet to capture and provide immediate access to footage of any road collisions, near misses or harsh driving events.

The company will have immediate availability of video footage and supporting vehicle data to defend against fraudulent insurance claims and contribute to improved driver behaviour by identifying areas of improvement and using actual footage of driver-specific incidents as part of CVT’s training strategy.
