If idling, speeding and mileage are being reduced, then fuel should be reduced as well. In this way, reviewing trend reports can help track progress.
Examine the number of miles driven
Geotab’s fleet management solution is ideal for managing miles driven is that the solution gives full visibility into mileage, the route taken and drive time. If your fleet is driving more miles, you will want to use route optimization reporting or tools to proactively set routes for your vehicles.
