Abstract:Transportation agencies have long communicated directly with truck drivers regarding weigh station compliance and parking availability, sometimes making use of applications provided by private third-party partners. One of these applications has expanded capabilities that allow agencies to transmit safety alerts directly to drivers through the in-cab electronic logging device systems. In December 2022, VDOT partnered with one of these providers to issue emergency weather-related restrictions and congestion alerts directly to drivers via push notifications directly on the in-cab electronic logging devices (ELDs) or smartphone devices running the in-cab alert app. This project studied the characteristics of the in-cab alerts in terms of coverage and scope, estimated market penetration, and observable effects on driver behavior from GPS traces.
