GO5™
GO5™ is a sophisticated plug-and-play telematics device that
caters for exact trip and driver behaviour monitoring as well
as detailed accident reconstruction.
Geotab™ offers a unique feature – the ability to
supply a focused, state of the art telematics
device that does not require splicing into,
or cutting of the vehicle’s wiring loom.

CHECKMATE™ The software suite of choice
From the simple, yet vitally important trips and activity of your vehicles, through
the more complex measurement of driver behaviour, predictive engine manage-
ment and essential accident data management, Checkmate™ handles the data in a
seamless, easy-to-manage method.
Our logic is simple and even the most challenged computer operator quickly learns
their way around Checkmate™.
Risk Management Reports and Driver Ratings
Driver risk management reports and tools are available within Checkmate™, our
proprietary software suite. The reports illustrate a complete view of a driver’s
profile, and drivers are assigned a score based on their driving habits. This caters
for a fully automated process that identifies risky drivers; the reports include top
speeds, harsh acceleration, harsh braking, sharp turns and more.
The Checkmate™ Risk Management Reports and Driver Ratings
Dangerous Lane Changes and Braking
State-of-the-art built in accelerometers in GO5™ ensures exact g-force monitoring
that allows for the monitoring of Driver Behaviour, with a twist – a built in buzzer
alerts the driver to infractions, allowing for the driver to actively adjust their driving
habits as they drive!
Identifying aggressive on-road behaviour which is often evident in dangerous,
sharp lane changes and harsh braking, will help you profile hazardous driving hab-
its, allowing for training and coaching that will minimize the risk of collisions and
accidents before they occur. Putting a stop to poor driving behaviour will help you
achieve safety with your drivers, and other vehicles on the road.

Accident Recording and Instant Notifications
If an accident occurs, be one of the first to know and take timely action steps.
With Geotab’s unique algorithm, you will receive a detailed view of the last 100
minutes, broken down into second-by-second detail of the event. This will help you
understand what lead up to the accident, and allow for accident reconstruction.
Additionally, if a vehicle is hit while parked, it would prove no-fault on the driver.
If a collision should occur GO5™ will automatically download accident data, in
second-by-second resolution, allowing for a full and comprehensive investigation
to be carried out by the relevant personnel in your company
