On Oct. 11, the driver performance management company released the results of its survey of 430 managers of North American fleets that include private delivery, construction and company cars.

Thirty-five percent of respondents said drivers used job-specific apps and 17 percent expect to deploy additional smartphone apps for drivers within a year.

They reported 76 percent of their fleet executives carry smartphone at work and 59 percent of these users are using smartphone or mobile apps for fleet management activities.
