Tow Truck Fleet Management System
Tow Truck Fleet Management Solution
In the U.S., towing represents the final linkin the transportation chain. However, 60% of tow fleetsface severe challenges such as slow response times, high risks, and uncontrollable costs.
Consider the facts:
Dispatch via phone averages over 45 minutes(industry benchmark: 30 minutes).
1. 28% of rescue incidentsare due to improper on-site operations (NHTSA).
2. 30% of fleetsreport over 5% fuel loss annually.
3. 40% of companies lose disputesdue to lack of video or operation records—each case costing over $5,000.
Challenges in Tow Truck Fleet Management
For towing companies, lacking a system means survival is at risk. Major issues include:
1. Inefficient Dispatch = Missed Golden Rescue Time
75% of fleets still rely on phones or radio to dispatch. Drivers report their coordinates manually, often delaying response. For instance, a stranded car on the highway might be 20 miles from an idle tow truck, yet never receive it—simply due to outdated dispatch systems.
2. High On-Site Risk = Frequent Secondary Accidents
According to NHTSA, 28% of towing accidents stem from simple errors like unlocked tow hooks or incorrect towing angles. Each incident can cost upwards of $15,000.
3. Cost Out of Control = Profits Eroded
Fuel theft or unnecessary detours result in over 5% annual fuel wastefor 30% of fleets.
Worse, 22% of total operational costgoes to fixing overused or damaged equipment.
4. Poor Compliance = High Legal Risk
Lacking operation records or video proof causes 40% of companiesto lose legal disputes—each costing more than $5,000.
YUWEI Tow Truck Management System
YUWEI offers a powerful, rugged solution tailored for real towing operations. The hardware is designed to survive -40°C to 85°C, handle rain, snow, and shock, and requires no vehicle modifications—simply plug and play.
Key Hardware Features:
1. AI Dash Cam with GPS
Combines ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance) and DMS (Driver Monitoring), with night vision support.
On highways, it warns drivers of sudden stops and monitors fatigue during late-night rescues.
2. In-Vehicle Display
A 7-inch HD screen displays dispatch instructions, vehicle location, and fault type.
Voice command support allows hands-free confirmation like “vehicle connected,” improving focus and safety in noisy environments.
3. Driver Monitoring Camera (DMS)
Uses facial recognition to detect fatigue (e.g., eyes closed for 2+ seconds) or distractions like phone use.
With ≥99% accuracy, it captures critical safety moments, alerting drivers in real-time.
4. Intelligent Alarm System
Triggers sound-light alerts and backend notifications for issues like “unconnected vehicle,” “overspeeding” (customizable, e.g., 80km/h), or “tow arm pressure anomaly.”
This prevents dangerous errors like vehicle drop-offs on the road.
5. MDVR (Mobile DVR)
Supports 4 video streams (front, rear, tow point, and cabin).
Footage is time-stamped, collision-locked, and uploaded via 4G in real time—perfect for dispute resolution. Recordings are stored for 30 days.
6. Backup Camera
180° wide-angle lens with night vision eliminates blind spots during reverse maneuvers.
This significantly reduces low-speed collision risk during vehicle pickup (which accounts for 22% of towing damage).
7. Fuel Sensor
Monitors fuel levels and calculates consumption based on mileage.
Detects anomalies such as unauthorized detours or theft with ±0.5% precision.
Annual savings exceed $12,000 per vehiclein long-distance operations.
Smart Software Platform
YUWEI’s cloud-based software platform supports both PC and mobile app accesswith real-time fleet visibility and intelligent management:
Real-Time GPS & Smart Dispatch
1. Accurate within 2 meters.
2. One-tap dispatch automatically finds the nearest available tow truck, factoring in live traffic and job type.
3. Navigation avoids congested or accident-prone areas.
Live Video & Cloud Recording
1. HQ can view real-time rescue footagefrom any device.
2. Guide drivers remotely (e.g., “adjust 15° left”).
3. All footage auto-uploaded to the cloud and stored for 30 days for future evidence.
Tiered Alerts & Emergency Response
1. 20+ alert types: drowsiness, speeding, disconnection, and more.
2. Instant notifications are sent to dispatchers and drivers via voice or app.
Telematics & Remote Monitoring
1. Integrates with OBD data to track engine temperature, tire pressure, battery voltage, etc.
2. Alerts for abnormalities like engine overheating reduce roadside failures and cut unplanned maintenance by 40%.
Full Process Reporting
a. Automatically generates:
① Rescue Efficiency Reports(avg. response time, task duration)
② Cost Reports(fuel, equipment, labor)
③ Customer Feedback Reports(complaint rate, satisfaction rate)
b. Enables smart decision-making (e.g., assign night shifts to senior drivers).
c. Lowers total operating cost by 18%–22%.
