Safe Driving as a Competition

Scores, Rankings, and Rewards

Scorecards, rankings, and rewards. When drivers can see their score, they compete to improve it.

  • Scored by collision risk
  • No new hardware, fully voluntary
  • Up to 50% fewer high-risk events (Geotab, 2025)

Culture

Drivers Improve What They Can See

Scorecards turn abstract safety talk into a number every driver owns.

Weekly goals and status tiers

Every driver gets a weekly goal and a status tier tied to real driving behavior, updated automatically.

Team competition

Sites, shifts, and regions race each other to the top.

Recognition and rewards

Celebrate improvement, not just perfection.

Lasting behavior change

Gamified fleets hold gains long after the launch month.

Vitality

Geotab Vitality: Real Rewards, Not a Pizza Party

Geotab Vitality is a driver-rewards platform built on behavioral science and Geotab's predictive collision-risk data.

Drivers get weekly safety goals, climb tiers, and earn rewards, all from the trackers already in your vehicles: no new hardware, no cameras.

Because rewards coach every driver, not just the bottom of the leaderboard, Richards Building Supply saw its predicted collision risk fall 8.0% after rewards went live (Geotab, 2026).

Pilot Before You Commit

Vitality offers a free pilot for up to 20 drivers for 60 days with no commitment.

Trackers with a driver assigned, 30 miles a week per driver, and 2 to 4 weeks of calibration for fleets just getting started; we handle setup with your safety lead.

On Screen

The Leaderboard Everyone Can See

Goals and streaks live on the driver's phone; the leaderboard and the trend live on the office screen, where you run the program.

One Score Per Driver

Scores Drivers Can Compare

Camera and tracker events roll into one score per driver, ready for the leaderboard on the breakroom screen. Same rules for every driver, visible to every driver: that is what makes the leaderboard feel fair instead of watched.

Questions

Gamification FAQ

How does gamification improve safety?

Scorecards, benchmarks, and recognition motivate drivers to improve the behaviors that reduce risk.

What behaviors are scored?

Speeding, harsh braking and acceleration, cornering, idling, and seatbelt use, among others.

Can we reward top drivers?

Yes. Rankings and rewards give drivers a clear, positive reason to keep improving.

What does it cost us to run week to week?

Almost nothing in labor: goals, scoring, nudges, and reward fulfillment run automatically inside the program. Managers watch a dashboard; drivers manage themselves.

Is the scoring fair across different vehicles and routes?

Scoring uses Geotab's predictive collision-risk model, calibrated by vehicle type and operating context, so a delivery van downtown is not graded against a highway tractor.

Do drivers have to opt in?

Yes, participation is voluntary, which is exactly why it works in union shops. One municipal example: King Township, Ontario ran a union-shop program that cut speeding 10.9%, cut predicted collision risk 7%, and improved fuel efficiency 6.4% (Geotab, 2026).

How fast would we see anything?

Fleets typically see measurable behavior change within about 30 days (Geotab, 2026). The free Vitality pilot exists so your own numbers, not our reported ones, settle the question.

A Program Drivers Actually Like

The free pilot runs 60 days on up to 20 of your drivers, no commitment.
