How Long Are Beidou Fatigue Driving Records Stored?
2 Answers
Beidou fatigue driving records are stored for one year. The monitoring of fatigue driving during daily vehicle use is very strict. When a vehicle has been continuously driven for four hours, it must be stopped for a 20-minute break. Fatigue driving can lead to traffic accidents and, in severe cases, threaten lives. Below is an introduction to the Beidou system: The Beidou system can analyze vehicle driving trajectories, driving times, fatigue driving records, and other information, allowing real-time monitoring of truck drivers' work and rest patterns as well as driving habits. Upon detecting fatigue driving behavior, the system will immediately trigger an automatic SMS alert, and an electronic ticket will be sent directly to the vehicle owner's phone. Traffic police will also promptly arrive at the scene.
Regarding the retention period of Beidou fatigue driving records, I often encounter this situation during long-haul transportation, as the Beidou system continuously monitors our truck drivers' driving behavior. Generally, these records, including fatigue driving data, are retained for 180 days to about one year, depending on company policies and local regulations. I learned this from a safety meeting—the purpose is for accident investigations or training improvements. In case of an incident, the backend can check the records to verify the driver's condition. For example, last year when I was fatigued from consecutive overtime shifts, the system automatically triggered an alarm, and the administrator retrieved the data to help analyze the issue. This setup is quite humane, but I’m also concerned about privacy, as recording too many details could be misused. I advise everyone to avoid prolonged driving and take regular breaks—it’s crucial for everyone’s safety.
