Penske Truck Leasing announced today that its mobile app Penske driver has been approved by Transport Canada for use as a travel and recreational recording device.
The certification was issued by the independent third party CSA Group.
In addition to hours of operation, the app allows fleet managers to measure driver performance and productivity as well as vehicle performance in real time, Penske said in a statement.
Ann Walsh, senior vice president of digital solutions and customer data at Penske Transportation Solutions, said she is pleased with this approval from Canadian authorities.
“This certification demonstrates our commitment to offer our customers the best possible solutions for managing their fleets. Our team has worked hard to ensure the new app meets the highest standards of accuracy and reliability,” she said.
Penske adds that with this technology solution, truckers can meet the requirement to use an ELD in both the United States and Canada, making cross-border transportation easier.
