As 2017 comes to a close, we look back on a year in the fleet industry where mobility emerged as a more pressing topic and fleet managers continued to manage driver behavior to better protect the safety of people and assets.

At Automotive Fleet, we are always aware of the focus fleets place on safety, which is why we publish our weekly Fleet Safety newsletter. The Tuesday newsletter usually includes one or more safety videos that help provide tools to fight distraction and other risky driver behavior.
