Safety and security

Reduce wear and tear, improve fuel efficiency, and, above all, make our roads safer for everyone. From driver safety records to real-time alerts on board a truck and automatic speed limitation, Volvo's safety and security services are designed to give you more control for more safety.

What are safety and security services?

When you combine a Volvo truck’s advanced technology with highly skilled drivers, roads become safer. Volvo safety and security services allow you to monitor how your drivers are driving and use that data to guide how you can train them to drive better – you can also set your truck’s speed limit as it enters a specific area, helping to prevent accidents before they happen.

Analyze and improve driver safety

Access driver records to identify behaviors, such as harsh braking and acceleration, then put that information into practice with tailored Driver Training.

Get alerted to safety events

When a safety event is triggered on board a vehicle in the fleet, you’ll get a real-time notification.

Reduce the risk of accidents

Use service records to see driver behaviors, like harsh braking and acceleration. You can also log interventions by active safety systems to prevent accidents.

    Safety Zones

    The Safety Zones service in Volvo Connect automatically restricts the speed of trucks in designated areas such as busy city centers, ports, and loading and unloading stations.

    Set automatic speed limitations

    Limit a truck's speed within a specific zone. When the truck drives within the area, the speed is restricted by the engine.

    Monitor events and speed violations

    Receive notifications in Volvo Connect when a truck enters and leaves a speed zone and when a driver overrides or violates the zone speed.

    Safety Service

    Monitor and analyze driver behavior and use that data to guide your driver training, helping reduce the risk of accidents and improving the safety of your fleet.

    Driver behavior and safety interventions

    Log critical driver behaviors like harsh braking and acceleration, and active safety system interventions, and get alerts if safety systems are disabled.

    Real-time notifications and reports

    Get instant notifications and customizable reports that highlight safety events.

Control speed. Improve safety.

Safety Zone is an add-on to the Positioning service subscription that helps you control speed limits in up to 300 defined zones. The engine restricts acceleration above the set limit, while still allowing the driver to override if needed. Fleet managers can monitor all zone events, including entries, exits, and violations, directly in Volvo Connect. It’s a smart way to promote safer, more consistent driving.
