for the coach market – an innovative approach to collision mitigation designed
to help your fleet on the road, in the office and on the bottom line.
Helping your drivers and passengers on the road
Keeping a safe distance behind a vehicle is one way to help your fleet avoid collisions. Prevost Aware – Adaptive Cruise Braking by
Bendix – can help your drivers maintain a safe following distance. When the distance between your driver’s coach and the vehicle
they’re following starts to close, the system provides warnings and – when cruise control is engaged – actions, including brake
applications, to help your driver keep their distance.

Professional commercial vehicle drivers participating in Bendix road tests have indicated that using the system helps keep
them more alert throughout their shift. Alert drivers can be safer drivers – and that adds up to potentially fewer accidents and
accident-related downtime for your fleet.

Providing information you can use
Performance on the road is important, but you also need information to know what’s happening out there. The system delivers solid
data your fleet can use, such as information about following distance, cruise control use, and stability events. Knowing about close
calls and other insights from the road can help you assess and update your driver training needs and support fleet operations.

Making a positive contribution to your bottom line
It’s all about getting a quick return on your safety investment. The system helps in two significant ways. First, by helping drivers
maintain following distance and stay more alert, your fleet may see fewer accidents, and less accident-related costs. Second, the
system can help your drivers stay in cruise control longer, which – depending on your fleet operations – can result in significant
fuel savings.
