Penske Driver app supplies HOS functionality
Penske Truck Leasing has released the Penske Driver app, which provides truck drivers with easy Hours of Service (HOS) functionality to meet the electronic logging device (ELD) mandate, and other productivity tools. The firm is providing the Penske Driver app and its HOS solution free to its commercial customers. In addition to the new app, Penske continues to allow drivers and fleets to use their own portable ELD systems within its rental vehicles.
Designed to comply with HOS regulations for Penske commercial customers who rent trucks, the Penske Driver app is available for Android and iOS/Apple devices. It quickly and easily connects using Bluetooth inside Penske’s rental trucks. The app is then integrally synchronized to meet ELD mandate requirements, and it remains connected to ensure the driver is always in compliance. Activating the app is easy with assistance from Penske’s rental associates.
The Penske Driver app enables truck drivers to:
•Easily log HOS in Penske rental vehicles and comply with the ELD mandate.
•Quickly locate Penske Truck Leasing service, rental and fuel locations as well as other locations, including truck stops, CNG stations and public scales.
•Access essential vehicle information, including full visibility into a vehicle’s recent service history.
•Digitally submit fuel receipts with a simple form and receipt photo, virtually eliminating paperwork.
The new Penske Driver app is a companion to the Penske Fleet app for fleet managers, launched earlier in 2017. Enhancements and upgrades to the Penske Driver app are already slated for early 2018. Both apps are available for free download in the Apple App Store and on Google Play.
