system that can help. Your fleet benefits from a potent combination
of active safety technologies that can help your drivers in collisions,
roll-overs, and loss-of-control situations. In addition, the system can
provide data, to help keep you in the know about what’s happening
out on the road.

Helping your drivers on the highway
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
(NHTSA), on average 2-3 rear-end collisions involving heavy trucks
occur somewhere in the U.S. every hour. When the distance
between your driver’s truck and the vehicle they’re following starts
to close, Bendix Wingman Advanced provides the driver following
distance alerts and, if necessary, will apply the brakes to help the
driver potentially avoid the collision, or help reduce its severity.

Unique to Bendix Wingman Advanced are stationary object alerts.
These alerts give the driver a warning (up to 3.0 seconds) of a
metallic object, such as a stalled car, blocking the lane of travel.

Providing information you can use
Performance on the road is important, but you also need
actionable information to know what’s happening out there. The
Bendix Wingman Advanced system can deliver important data
your fleet can use, such as following distance information, alerts
given, 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 Bendix Wingman Advanced system helps your fleet in
two significant ways. First, by helping drivers potentially avoid
rear-end collisions or, at least, help reduce their severity, 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.
