VisTracks Announces Trucker Shield(TM) to Insure Truckers remain on the road and in compliance with all FMCSA Requirements

LISLE, Ill. - July 25, 2019 - PRLog -- The VisTracks ELD (Electronic Logging Device) provides the technology allowing drivers and motor carriers to stay compliant with the ELD Mandate since its inception in 2017. This powerful tool alone, however, can't address all of the ancillary issues the mandate requires. The implementation of the ELD Mandate is governed by over 500 pages of regulations and some states have their own exceptions.  All of this has made it difficult for motor carriers, and individual drivers in particular, to understand the regulations and remain compliant. To address this significant challenge, VisTracks, Inc. has developed Trucker Shield^(TM), a Compliance as a Service (CaaS) offering for VisTracks' ELD customers.  Trucker Shield^(TM) will also facilitate the move from AOBRD to ELD that everyone must make in December 2019.

Steve Eick, CEO, says, "The goal for this comprehensive solution is to provide the complete infrastructure that motor carriers need to keep themselves and their drivers on the road and in compliance with the evolving FMCSA requirements."  Rocky Caylor, Chief Compliance Officer added, "Trucker Shield^(TM) is what sets VisTracks apart from other providers of ELD solutions. VisTracks provides the best ELD while Trucker Shield^(TM) provides a much broader and diverse support system. VisTracks has the ability to effectively navigate the varied compliance landscapes, while at the same time, sharing this with our partners. The industry faces difficult times adjusting to the ELD deadline in December. Allow VisTracks to listen to your needs and provide your complete compliance solution."

VisTracks' ELD product consists of the reseller-branded VisTracks' FMCSA-compliant and certified mobile application and portal. This is combined with a tablet or smartphone in the vehicle and a certified hardware device attached to the engine that transmits data via Bluetooth, WiFi Direct, WiFi or a wired serial interface to the tablet. VisTracks ELD enables drivers to keep electronic logs of their driving status, be warned of impending violations, provide for pre- and post-trip vehicle inspection, and follow additional state and federal rules.
