Managing a fleet in South Africa means dealing with high accident rates, rising insurance costs, fuel theft, and driver safety concerns. In 2023 alone, road crashes cost the economy over R205 billion. Fleet cameras with integrated GPS tracking and live monitoring are no longer optional – they are essential tools for protecting your vehicles, your drivers, and your bottom line. The Car Dash Cam Store partners with Howen to deliver VSS, a complete fleet management platform that combines video surveillance, real-time tracking, and remote vehicle control.
The Road Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC) reported that in 2023, the cost of road crashes amounted to over R205 billion, which is equivalent to approximately 2.74% of South Africa’s GDP . This figure includes not only vehicle repairs but also the extensive economic and social costs such as lost productivity, medical treatment, emergency services, police involvement, funeral costs, and damage to infrastructure .
Human factors and road user behaviour remain the primary contributors to these incidents, accounting for a significant majority of fatal crashes . Pedestrians continue to be the most vulnerable road users, with 5,360 pedestrians losing their lives in 2023 . The economic impact of these crashes extends far beyond the initial incident, leading to reduced national productivity, lost income for families, and long-term care costs for victims . In 2024, the trend of high fatalities continued, with 10,154 people having already died on South Africa’s roads by December of that year
VSS is a SaaS platform for GPS tracking and video monitoring. It offers a complete set of services designed for monitoring any driver and person, detect reckless driving behavior, track fleet vehicles and cargoes in real-time, collect vehicle data, and more to help businesses achieve greater productivity and efficiency. As part of an off-the-shelf turnkey solution, VSS is secure, open, and scalable, and plays an essential role to enable visibility and controllability, simplify management, and optimize resources utilization.
Powerful LTE connectivity enables the live monitoring of the vehicle’s interior and exterior via an online platform; while the critical video clips in the device allows for on-demand playback after the fact from anywhere, at any time.
Simultaneously monitor the road ahead and what happens in the cab in real-time through the two on-device lenses, with no peripheral camera needed. Extra External cameras can be added.
The video recorder can be used as a tracker to locate the vehicle and stamp data such as vehicle speed, coordinates, time, and more on the images or video clips.
The small form factor of the MC30-01/2 and the V8 allows discreet installation behind the rearview mirror without blocking the driver’s view.
Enable you to cut off the fuel/power to the vehicle moving under 20km/h using VSS, which is useful if your fleet vehicle has been stolen.
Review history video clips and traveled routes to prevent fleet vehicles from being used for private purposes, determine if drivers or other staff have followed the pre-planned route, learn about how drivers have behaved behind the wheel, and provide reliable evidence in case of false claims.
Monitor driver’s vigilance behind the wheel and alert on fatigue or distraction or more. Detect reckless driving practices and give out in-cab alerts to ensure the safety of drivers, cargoes, passengers, pedestrians, and more.
Monitor fuel level and alert on possible fuel theft incidents. Collect fuel consumption data from fuel sensors, compute estimated fuel expenses, and notify drivers when to refill.
Track any object or person in real time. Find forgotten vehicles, recover stolen ones, and learn about distribution to maximize utilization, reduce loss, and facilitate dispatching.
Provide complete visibility on the road and in the yard in real-time. Monitor multiple fleet vehicles or critical positions of the same vehicle in one view and alert on any intrusion or theft attempt.
Plan delivery route ahead to avoid traffic or routes that may pose danger to drivers, cargoes, or vehicles. This helps cut fuel and driving expenses, increase productivity, improve customer experience, and reduce mileage.
Present true real-time data in actionable intuitive graphs and lists. Provide details about exceptions to enable you to discover where to improve and how your fleets and drivers have behaved on the road.
Provide complete visibility on the road and in the yard in real-time. Monitor multiple fleet vehicles or critical positions of the same vehicle in one view and alert on any intrusion or theft attempt.
Schedule regular maintenance for each vehicle based on its purchase date and usage frequency. Ensure mechanics are reminded in time so fleet vehicles are always running in optimal state.
Give out real-time alerts on exceptions, including low internal battery, entering or leaving preset geographic areas, door status change, ignition status, unexpected vibrations, sudden fuel level drop, sudden temperature change in reefer, and so on.
Create multiple subaccounts and grant permissions based on their roles in the organization. This feature helps streamline processes and define responsibilities.
Provide end users and fleet managers or operators with 24/7 access to their vehicles from any Android or iOS smartphone. The free mobile application enables them to monitor people and assets from anywhere.

A: Remote immobilization allows fleet managers to cut fuel or power to a stolen vehicle remotely through the VSS platform, but only when the vehicle is moving under 20km/h for safety.
A: Howen fleet cameras use LTE connectivity to stream live video from road and cabin cameras to the VSS dashboard. Managers can view any vehicle in real-time from a phone or computer.
A: Fleet cameras are hardwired to the vehicle’s battery and operate independently of mains power. They continue recording during load shedding and can send alerts via cellular networks.
