Idling school buses consume about one-half gallon of fuel per hour.

EPA has worked aggressively with the six New England states to implement and enforce anti-idling programs. EPA’s inspections of transportation facilities are part of a region-wide effort to curb diesel air emissions. EPA’s New England office has previously brought and resolved 11 separate enforcement actions for penalties against nine different companies, for violations of state anti-idling regulations.

The following states have anti-idling regulations:

California; Connecticut; Delaware; Florida; Hawaii; Maine; Massachusetts; Maryland; Minnesota; Nevada; New Hampshire; New Jersey; New York; Ohio; Pennsylvania; Rhode Island; South Carolina; Utah; Vermont; Virginia; West Virginia;

The common misperception is that GPS is expensive.

The basic GPS solution on a GEOTAB installation will start generating payback through idle time monitoring and a reduction in fuel costs, administration assistance in fuel tax admin for qualifying fleets, reduction in self-insured liability, accurate billing and payroll based on distance and/or time stamps and reduction in premature engine and vehicle wear by reducing mileage and engine hours.

The fast changing pace of communications networks is quickly driving down the cost of the real time components.

With GEOTAB – cellular airtime is not necessary for all fleet vehicles. GEOTAB supports both passive (with no monthly cellular or air time data fee) and Live (cellular and data fee) solutions that are combined for one organization.

GEOTAB allows fleets to pay for the technology through real and tangible savings – and then build on the successful deployment as required and as budgets allow.
