“…Telematics installations can be a future option to further improve road safety in resource-rich contexts, such as countries with high developmental indexes 7 , 40 . We found that each percent increase in telematic installation can reduce RUD by 0.22%, which is higher than fixed SECs and lower than point-to-point SECs.…”

“…However, the use of telematics systems for preventing RTIs is not limited to speed enforcement; it also extends to various other applications, including traffic management, communication with other systems (e.g., emergency units), and driver assistance systems 7 , 11 . Additionally, telematics can reduce RTIs through interventions other than incentives, such as providing feedback to drivers at the time of distraction 40 – 42 . Estimating the total benefit of telematic-based interventions and their cost–benefit balance is challenging, and future studies are warranted to investigate their impact on driving behavior.…”

Utilizing a novel microsimulation approach, this study evaluates the impact of fixed and average point-to-point Speed Enforcement Cameras (SEC) on driving safety. Using the SUMO software, agent-based models for a 6-km highway without exits or obstacles were created. Telematics data from 93,160 trips were used to determine the desired free-flow speed. A total of 13,860 scenarios were simulated with 30 random seeds. The ratio of unsafe driving (RUD) is the spatial division of the total distance travelled at an unsafe speed by the total travel distance. The study compared different SEC implementations under different road traffic and community behaviours using the Power Model and calculated crash risk changes. Results showed that adding one or two fixed SECs reduced RUD by 0.20% (0.18–0.23) and 0.57% (0.54–0.59), respectively. However, average SECs significantly lowered RUD by 10.97% (10.95–10.99). Furthermore, a 1% increase in telematics enforcement decreased RUD by 0.22% (0.21–0.22). Point-to-point cameras effectively reduced crash risk in all implementation scenarios, with reductions ranging from − 3.44 to − 11.27%, pointing to their superiority as speed enforcement across various scenarios. Our cost-conscious and replicable approach can provide interim assessments of SEC effectiveness, even in low-income countries.

Innovation is an important driver of economic progress, benefiting consumers, business and the economy as whole. However, innovation companies face high risks because innovation requires a lot of resources, and it is difficult to predict a payback period in advance. This is common for all types of innovation, but especially to technological innovation. One of the least researched technological innovations is telematics, innovative transport monitoring and control technology solutions. Those are widely applied in logistics, car-sharing platforms and the public transport sector. These innovations help to achieve the goals of the companies that buy and install them, but question what impact they have on the competitiveness of the companies that create these innovations remains a matter of debate. To fill this gap, the purpose of this article is to determine the impact of technological innovation on the competitiveness of telematics companies. In pursuit of this goal, the concepts of technological innovation and competitiveness are revealed. The definition of telematics innovation and its significance for the competitiveness of enterprises was also formed. The empirical part discusses the telematics market, provides the analysis of the main competitiveness indicators of 8 telematics companies and their changes, as well as the analysis of the research and development (R&D) costs and the impact of innovations on competitiveness. Applied research methods: a critical analysis of scientific literature, generalization, systematization of data, computation, and comparison of relative indicator, data dispersion indicator, and dynamics indicator, correlation, and regression analysis. The research reveals that creation and development innovation are related to competitiveness of telematics companies. However, excessive investment into innovation no longer generates positive return.
