Cappagh Browne, a leading wastewater services provider for Southern Water, has cut dangerous driving incidents by 95% in just one week by using Samsara’s AI dash cams and GPS technology. The company, operating a 250-vehicle fleet across 65,000 annual jobs, needed greater visibility into driver behaviour to meet rising compliance demands and reduce operational risk.
By adopting Samsara’s Connected Operations Platform, the company now monitors behaviours like harsh braking, phone use and seatbelt violations in real time—allowing for immediate coaching and faster safety improvements.
The impact has been dramatic:
- At-fault accident claims down 88%
- Speeding incidents reduced by 17%
- Fuel spend cut by 10%
- Vehicle inspection completion rates up from 80% to 93%
- Over £100,000 saved annually through fewer accidents and efficiency gains
Matthew Reid, Head of Plant & Transport, said, “It’s all about awareness. Once drivers understood the risks, they corrected unsafe habits themselves.”
Cappagh Browne has also added safety stand-downs and real-time idling reports to support fuel-saving. Samsara’s platform now plays a growing role across operations, helping build a safer, smarter fleet.
