FAQs

Does the system require manual activation by the driver?

No. To ensure safety and ease of use, Safety Cloud is fully automated. The system is wired to the vehicle’s warning light bar or master switch. As soon as an emergency responder or worker activates their warning lights, Safety Cloud automatically begins broadcasting digital alerts to nearby motorists.

How is Safety Cloud installed on a fleet?

Fleets can activate Safety Cloud through three primary methods, depending on their existing setup:

• Telematics Integration: Activating through software integration without new hardware.
• HA-7 Transponder: For older vehicles or those without compatible telematics.
• OEM Pre-Install: Some manufacturers, such as Pierce Manufacturing, pre-install Safety Cloud as a standard feature on new fire apparatus.

Safety Cloud was developed for all roadside workers, including emergency responders, essential fleets, and construction vehicles.
