Default OT...Vehicle Monitoring Advise Requested

Hi;

We have a fleet of ten vehicles. Due to insurance rates, we want to
put video cameras in the vehicles that will monitor what the drivers
are doing and put location and speed on the internet so that we can
see exactly where the vehicles are and how they are being driven. What
are these systems called? Please provide and web links if you know
where they can be purchased.

Thanks

Ask a local company what they use.

Be aware that in so doing you may get cross-wise with the union. They will
protest, go on strike, shut your business down and you'll be forced to sell
your expensive equipment at a loss just to provide shoes for your children
so they won't have to go to school barefoot. In the snow.

Vehicles....? The motorized variety, I presume...?

I doubt the savings would justify the expense.

Google- "GPS tracking".

Why? You have some recommendation if it was a rickshaw? :-)
