According to AppleInsider, there are currently over 1 billion iPhone’s in active use worldwide, making Apple a runner-up to Samsung in mobile vendor market shares in Europe. As a business, we seek to make our service accessible to as many people as possible. We believe that the launch of Tachogram for iOS mobile devices brings us one step closer to this goal.

We’re continuing our blog post series on the Mobility Package by covering the most important additions and changes introduced by it. In this blog we will talk about the changes that concern taking two reduced weekly rests in a row. What’s interesting about this is that technically you could already take two consecutive reduced weekly rests before the Mobility Package amendments, but there were some tricks involved in doing so. Stay with us to find out what’s new.

Data security is just as important as data accuracy and clarity. That’s why at Tachogram we’ve taken it seriously since the beginning by implementing various security measures and continuously improving them. 

At the end of 2020, we started a blog series about driving and rest time changes implemented by the Mobility Package. In this blog, we’re continuing it by looking at rests on trains and ferries. 

As you may know, the Mobility Package was adopted by the European Council earlier this year. It was introduced to clarify some points in the previous work and rest time regulations as well as further improve drivers’ work conditions.

Using reports is a great way to quickly oversee business processes. That’s why in Tachogram we’ve created ten different reports to help you conveniently view your fleet’s most important tachograph data. In this blog, we’ll describe what types of reports Tachogram provides and how they can help you manage your business.

The COVID-19 pandemic is impacting the whole economy around the world and transportation is one of the backbones of keeping the supplies delivered in these turbulent times. Be it medical equipment and supplies, or regular food deliveries, it’s important that the goods are delivered on time. Due to this unusual situation, several countries have imposed changes to the work and resting time rules as a response to the situation. In this article, we’ll take a look at the changes countries make, their legal implications and offer some suggestions on how the drivers can make sure they’re not violating the rules.

Driving time, breaks and rest period times are strictly regulated for commercial drivers within the European Union to protect drivers themselves as well as other road users. This regulation (EC 561/2006) is implemented via regular tachograph checks and is part of the reason why fatalities of lorry drivers have dropped by 34%, heavy goods drivers by 47% and bus and coach drivers by 53% from 2008 to 2018 within the EU according to European Road Safety Observatory. 

Technology is constantly developing and offering ways to make our lives easier and safer. This is also the reason for the recent change in tachograph legislation and introduction to the new generation of tachographs – smart tachographs. But what and how exactly will the new devices change in the way drivers and companies operate? Keep reading and you’ll find out!

Today, more and more companies understand the benefits of having a telematics system to manage their fleets. Moreover, they look for additional solutions to integrate with their systems and make business processes even easier to oversee. Tachogram is here to offer tachograph data analysis using three types of integrations – REST API, FTP file upload and e-mail integration.
