ABP: “The best driver can become your biggest risk” - S1,E9
Adrian Simpson sits down with Geotab’s Aaron Jarvis to explore how AI, telematics and connected vehicle data are reshaping the future of fleet management. From rising fuel costs and accelerating EV adoption to AI-powered fleet assistants and real-time driver monitoring, the discussion examines how businesses are using data to cut costs, improve safety and rethink the way fleets operate. Aaron explains why the UK is leading the EV transition, how generative AI is changing decision-making for fleet managers, and why connected vehicle technology is becoming as much about driver wellbeing and risk prevention as operational efficiency. The episode also dives into predictive maintenance, OEM data integration, edge AI dashcams, vehicle theft prevention and the growing pressure on fleets to turn sustainability targets into commercial advantage.
