San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA), which operates the Municipal Railway (Muni), recently  selected DriveCam as its exclusive provider of behavior-based risk mitigation solutions to improve the safety of its fleet and reduce vehicle damages, personal injury and driver and passenger compensation claims costs associated with transit operations.

The DriveCam program has been rolled out throughout the SFMTA and is now deployed on 100 percent of the Muni bus fleet.

"We believe this new system will help us improve safety on the Muni system," said SFMTA. Executive Director/Chief Executive Officer Nathaniel P. Ford Sr.  "DriveCam shares our commitment to safe driving and we are encouraged by their cutting-edge technology and their commitment to bringing to the transit industry the best practices they've applied to Driver Risk Management."

"With large vehicles and a mix of stop-and-go driving in densely populated areas, transit buses have many safety challenges," said Brandon Nixon, DriveCam CEO. "DriveCam's solution enables clients like the SFMTA to proactively protect the safety of their drivers and the passengers they serve by identifying and correcting risky driving behaviors. We are proud to have the SFMTA part of our client portfolio."
