Testimonials
Every claim on this page belongs to the organisation that made it. Their words. Their figures.
“Shell’s staff and contractors drive around 1.1 billion kilometres each year. That’s equivalent to driving about 75 times around the world each day, hence getting road safety right is a priority for Shell. The Driver Risk Index is a key element of our global Defensive Driving Training programme for our staff. Driver trainers integrate the Driver Risk Index feedback with in-vehicle observations, holding proactive enhanced coaching conversations, and this is seen as a real benefit for our drivers.”
Quoted in full, exactly as given.
“Our internal research confirms that 97% of drivers have changed their behaviour for the better since introducing the programme:
- 50% reduction in claims
- 99% driver satisfaction
- Estimated £1 million savings
95% of drivers identified as high risk have not been involved in an incident following coaching, and only 2% of those identified as low risk have had any sort of on-road incident.”
“The Driver Risk Index is the cornerstone of our safe travel roadmap, being unique in the market for identifying behavioural attitudes rather than focusing on driving skills and knowledge of road rules. We have seen a 50% reduction in the rate of accidents resulting in injuries.”
“The Driver Risk Index™ has formed the foundation of our Driver Risk Management programme since its inception. A reduction in collisions has been witnessed time and time again upon completion of the Driver Risk Index™ alone; however when supported with targeted on-road coaching, custom built simulation training, and interactive workshops we have consistently managed collisions down by over 40%.”
“The Police Driver Risk Index™ has become integral to the management and development of drivers within South Wales Police, and now forms the basis of the ongoing risk management for police drivers, ranging from management interventions to post incident evaluation. It has enabled the force to develop and challenge more effectively the underlying organisational and cultural beliefs surrounding the police driving context. Used in combination with more effective coaching skills, simulated assessments and electronic tracking of drivers, we have seen the force accident/incident rate drop from 736 to 577 during the past two years, an effective reduction of 21%.”
“The New Driver Risk Index™ will be used worldwide at Mercedes-Benz Driving Academy centres in the UK, China, the Netherlands and North America. It is a vital component in our training portfolio and we are thankful to DriverMetrics for providing us — and our learner drivers — with this valuable feedback tool.”
“We are very excited to be working with DriverMetrics® to implement the Truck Driver Risk Index™ and related training interventions in the UK. The DriverMetrics® solution forms a major part of our risk reduction strategy as we seek to reduce the situational and behavioural risks to our drivers.”
Greyhound Bus screened its driver applicants — and stopped hiring its own risk.
“In August 2014, we began assessing driver applicants in the DriverMetrics Driver Risk Index. We trained Driver Instructors on how to interpret the results and how to coach driver students more effectively at Driver Training School.”
Greyhound had identified a correlation between its new-hire drivers and high crash frequency: between 2013 and 2014, 33% of all vehicle collisions involved new hires. By 2016 that figure had fallen to 19%. In the worst-performing region — the North Eastern USA, with adverse weather and high congestion — collisions fell 51% over the same period, and in New York City collisions involving new-hire drivers fell from 40 to 7.
“…an extremely effective and well-developed, evidence-based programme delivered across the world.”
