Drivewyze Improvements

Last week we took a drive down I-49 to produce a briefing video on sideswipe collision avoidance.  We also wanted to test the effectiveness of the Drivewyze tool.  
Tracy Clark was our driver for the day and she did a phenomenal job as the captain of our ship. 
Here is an example of the screen view of Drivewyze on our Peoplenet unit.  So, as a result of our drive the following action items were communicated to our vendor:


We received an update from the Drivewyze team today on this several issues including the above screen shot.  This is something we brought up on a call last month with their Product Manager and based on that feedback, there will be 3 primary changes with this next release which is planned for early February.  The changes are as follows:

*Removal of the Exit Screen
*Red "pull in" screen (with pull in chime) only at Drivewyze sites where they have determined the driver must pull in.
*Non Drivewyze sites will have a white banner than says "Non Drivewyze Site" and will always give a neutral "Follow Road Signs" driving instruction.  Today  there is not clear direction.
