Auto Premiums Rise 11.1% Year-Over-Year
Auto insurance premiums are climbing fast, driven by risky driving, costly repairs, medical inflation and nuclear verdicts. As traditional rate hikes lose impact, learn why smarter, data-driven strategies are a must to reduce claims and control costs.
Younger Drivers = Higher Risk
Younger drivers tend to have more violations, an important trend for companies to watch as veterans retire and less experienced drivers take the wheel. Learn why tailoring safety programs to the unique risks and needs of each age group is key.
Regulatory Pressures Are Intensifying
Today’s regulatory environment is increasingly difficult to navigate, with operators facing growing scrutiny on compliance and mounting pressure to stay ahead of change. Learn how rising costs, shifting labor rules and complex reporting requirements are all impacting operations.
Geographic Location Impacts Fleet Risk
SambaSafety’s data reveals wide geographic variation in violation rates across the U.S. and Canada, with a 15-point gap between the highest and lowest regions. Learn how the disparity in enforcement measures across jurisdictions can influence these rates and why normalizing data matters.
