Geotab launches AI dash cam to cut fleet risk in Singapore

Geotab has launched its GO Focus Plus AI dash cam and new video intelligence platform in Singapore to help fleets proactively reduce risk and improve driver safety.

The dual-facing dash cam delivers proactive, in-cab voice support that helps drivers self-correct risky behaviours such as distraction, fatigue or tailgating, turning every alert into a coaching opportunity that aims to prevent accidents and create a measurable impact on fleet safety culture.

In a recent large pilot, the voice coaching functionality helped reduce tailgating by 90 percent and mobile phone use by 95 percent.

The launch comes amid a sustained rise in speeding-related risk across Singapore’s roads, with violations surging by 45.5 percent in just the first half of 2025 and traffic police recording an average of hundreds of cases daily.

With higher penalties now in effect, unsafe driving behaviours such as speeding carry greater financial and operational consequences for fleet operators, making timely, in-the-moment guidance increasingly paramount in this operating environment.

For commercial drivers operating under tight schedules in dense urban conditions, the margin for error has narrowed considerably as congested expressways, busy arterial roads and long shifts heighten exposure to risky behaviours such as speeding, distraction, tailgating, and fatigue. These factors continue to feature prominently in serious and fatal accidents.

At the same time, fleet operators face growing expectations from regulators, insurers and the public to demonstrate proactive duty of care, beyond post-incident accountability.

“In Singapore, transport operators are navigating an increasingly unforgiving operating environment,” said Ezanne Soh, Southeast Asia Associate Vice President of Geotab. “Drivers are under constant operational strain, and the cost of getting safety wrong is higher than ever. This is accelerating a clear shift across the industry, from reacting to incidents after they occur to preventing risk in real time before it leads to harm.”

GO Focus Plus combines Geotab’s connected vehicle insights with intelligent, in-cab coaching to give drivers instant support exactly when they need it, while helping fleet managers focus their attention on the issues that matter most, reducing day-to-day oversight burden and enabling more effective intervention without the need for constant monitoring or manual review.

Its proactive driver coaching provides instant, in-cab voice prompts to drivers when risky behaviours such as distracted driving or tailgating are detected to help them correct habits. AI-driven video intelligence surfaces the most urgent risks and repeat patterns for quick review to eliminate the need for fleet managers to sort through extensive footage, with each alert including video and contextual data to enable targeted and effective coaching.

The MyGeotab platform allows for a seamless workflow, including the assignment, tracking and recognition of progress, reinforcing a strong culture of safety within the fleet.

Geotab’s video intelligence platform is built to continuously evolve, with advanced AI models that refine detection and coaching automatically with every update.

The platform’s open architecture is designed to support a growing family of advanced cameras, with new models and capabilities planned in the coming months.
