In today’s world “Crash for Cash” is becoming a very real issue. After an accident all parties concerned can give conflicting views on what caused the accident. This could result in one of your drivers being accused of causing a crash even when they did not cause it. We often find that when CCTV Vehicle Camera Systems are installed they can benefit the company and the drivers in a number of different ways. Here are four benefits of installing CCTV Vehicle Camera Systems.
1. Protection from malicious insurance claims
With ever rising insurance costs, more and more companies are searching for ways to cut down their bills and reduce their risk. By having a CCTV Vehicle Camera System you will have clear evidence on the cause of an accident, this is particularly important if your driver did not cause the accident.
For more serious accidents, the video footage can also be used as evidence in court, if there is any doubt over the cause of an accident, helping you to protect your driver from malicious claims.
2. To prevent theft
This technology is perfect for your drivers to help them drive more safely. Both internal and external CCTV Vehicle Camera Systems can help with blind spot activity and provide reversing aids by giving your driver a live feed of everything around them, including people or other cars. This is a feature that most drivers value especially those in large trucks or vans.
4. Driver and passenger monitoring for bad behaviour
Ever wondered what your drivers get up to when they think you can’t see? CCTV Vehicle Camera Systems can help you monitor driver behaviour and activity. Remember the way the vehicles are driven and the behaviours of drivers will all impact on the company’s reputation. In addition bad driving habits can increase wear and tear of the vehicles and increase fuel usage.
We offer a variety of CCTV Vehicle Camera systems to help you to keep track of what’s happening to all your vehicles. We would love the opportunity to demonstrate these to you. For further information please contact us at info@bridgefleetsolution.co.uk or give us a call on 0208 402 2350.
The no-claims discount (NCD) has been a feature of car insurance for a long time, encouraging people to drive safely by rewarding them with lower premiums on renewal. But the benefits of hanging on to this feature of your policy may not be as worthwhile as you think.

Car insurance premiums could be just a fraction of current levels in five years’ time as driverless vehicles are expected to “eliminate bad driving” by 2020. Deaths and injuries caused by accidents are expected to virtually disappear and whiplash claims and car park disputes, which together account for 94pc of all insurance claims and cost insurers almost £3bn a year, could become a thing of the past as driverless technology will park our cars, brake automatically and swerve to avoid pedestrians and cyclists.
