This coupled with directional indicators make it easy to understand the precise location and direction of travel at all times, increasing productivity and improving Customer Service.
Road Speed Limit Exceeded
A reporting tool that allows any fleet administrator to see if and when any local or national speed limit has been exceeded and for how long.
This gives users of the Trackitnow ERA Tracking System a new and previously unavailable degree of understanding about how vehicles are used relative to the legal speed limit.
Conventional speed reporting from nearly all vehicle tracking providers does not compare the ACTUAL speed being against the ASSIGNED speed limit for the given road or type.
The Trackitnow system compares every data-point collected by the Trackitnow device against the latest updated dataset of speed limits along 99% of the UK roads.
Being able to review and reduce excessive speeding, reduces accidents, saves fuel and significantly extends vehicle longevity while enhancing vehicle end values. Better driver behavior can be a catalyst to save money, improving working conditions and enhancing the reputation of your company.
According to the European Environment Agency, “......cutting motorway speeds from 70mph to 60mph could deliver fuel savings for current technology passenger cars of 9–12 %, assuming smooth driving and 100 % compliance with speed limits. Multiply that cost across several vehicles and you have a huge source for savings in your business......cruising at 80mph can use 25% more fuel than driving at 70mph”
There is no single public authority responsible for maintaining speed limit information such as a national speed limit dataset. The Highways Agency is responsible for speed limits on motorways and trunk roads. Speed limits on other roads are set by the relevant Local Traffic Authority / Council. Google has taken it upon themselves to collate this data and to keep it updated as frequently as possible. Google has no obligation to do this, but it does make this Speed dataset available to Trackitnow through an ongoing commercial partnership arrangement.

Historic Tracking
Trackitnow makes your data instantly accessible for a minimum of 6 years at no extra cost. All reports are available in PDF and most in Excel formats.
Many tracking systems only allow short term access to your tracking data, often 3-12 months, which means you have to contact your provider and wait to receive your data. In some cases there are hidden additional costs associated with this.
Some Tracking systems cannot access older data at all, making it your responsibility to download and store old reports in case they are one day required.
Two Way SMS
The built in two way SMS centre allows you to send and receive messages directly from the tracking software.
Outbound SMS's are charged at 4p +VAT. SMS's are stored for a minimum of 6 years.
Route Reporting
To help identify and eliminate vehicles overlapping on routes and inefficient schedules you can, either by day or by week, re-run and check the overlap of the routes for up to 6 vehicles at the same time.
Each vehicle is shown in a different colour, and all of the stops are numbered to help you easily optimise your fleets operation.
This is a key management tool that will help fleets operating with multiple depots or groups of vehicles covering overlapping regions or territories.
