Safety & inspections overview

Safety in FAST

Driving events, score analysis, inspections, and training are separate records with different purposes.

Safety Forward is training, not a third event-coaching queue. Motive supplies the driving events. Operations analyzes those events; Compliance shows Safety Forward course progress. Completing a course does not mark a Motive event coached, and coaching an event does not complete a course.

AreaWhat it does
Pre-trip inspectionsDrivers complete DOT-style inspections from their phone; managers track compliance.
VEDR eventsVideo/telematics safety events (hard brake, speeding) come in for review and alert-based follow-up.
Safety scoresSeverity-weighted events per 1,000 miles, scheduling patterns, and the coaching backlog.
TrainingSafety Forward courses are assigned and tracked, with completion visible to managers.

VEDR and training features depend on your integrations (Motive/telematics and Safety Forward). If a section is empty, the integration may not be connected yet — see Integrations.

Start with Driver safety scores for event sources and count differences, Configure safety scoring for the scope of each setting, or Safety Forward training for monthly obligations and completion evidence.
