AI Technology to Improve Driver Behavior Monitoring

SAAM Tourist will integrate the Driver•i vision-based system into its intercity fleet. This AI system provides real-time insights into driver behavior, such as:

  • Speeding

  • Mobile phone usage

  • Lane discipline

  • Early signs of fatigue

The company said that spotting risky driving practices in real time was difficult earlier, especially during overnight trips. With Driver•i, fleet managers can now receive instant alerts and take quick corrective action.

Real-Time Alerts and Better Driver Coaching

The Driver•i platform delivers instant in-cab alerts whenever unsafe behavior is detected. It also sends detailed performance analytics to fleet managers, helping them:

  • Identify risky behavior

  • Provide targeted driver coaching

  • Improve accountability

  • Recognize safe and positive driving

Since the platform works on a software-as-a-service model, SAAM Tourist can access advanced safety features while keeping capital costs low.

Himachala, Chief Commercial Officer at SAAM Tourist, said that real-time detection was a major challenge earlier and the new system solves this gap. The company may soon extend the technology to its tourist and employee transport divisions.

Netradyne’s Global Expertise Strengthens Safety Goals

Netradyne, headquartered in San Diego, has analysed over 25 billion miles of driving data worldwide. The company offers advanced fleet safety solutions across North America, Europe, and Asia.

Durgadutt Nedungadi, Senior Vice President for EMEA and APAC at Netradyne, said the partnership focuses on preventing accidents proactively rather than reacting after they occur.

SAAM Tourist Continues to Expand Trusted Services

Operating since 2004, SAAM Tourist serves southern India with intercity, corporate, tourist, and employee transportation services. Over the years, the company has grown from school and employee transport to offering luxury tour packages.

The adoption of AI safety technology marks another major step in improving service quality and ensuring safer travel for passengers.
