2270 ZoomSafer, a provider of corporate policy software to prevent distracted driving, has released a major upgrade to its FleetSafer enterprise software platform. The company claims the latest version is the world's first and only safe driving software that integrates seamlessly with Mobile Resource Management (MRM) telematics solutions, in-vehicle Bluetooth products (OEM-installed or after-market accessory) and/or phone-based GPS services to automatically activate/deactivate 'safe drive mode' on users' smartphones whenever they start/stop driving. According to the company, FleetSafer is a simple way for employers to proactively enforce corporate safe driving policies and encourage employees to use their cell phones in a safe, legal and responsible manner.
