Communication is a primary function of a phone. However, today’s technology offers much more, including ways to ensure that you are safe on the road. We present an overview of mobile applications useful for drivers.

AutoGuard Dash Cam is a tool that not only allows you to track the vehicle’s path using GPS but also to read its parameters, i.e. speed. A phone mounted on the front screen of the truck records offenses on the road, takes pictures and even records accidents. It is available for free and the paid version is enriched with additional functions.

TruckDriver.eu informs you of incidents such as seizure, health problems or breakdowns. The incident is reported in the system, and the recipients are other users located in the vicinity. When someone calls for help, other drivers will be informed that something bad is happening. The exact location of the person in need is displayed on the map. If a driver responds to the call, he can move to the place after selecting the answer option. Thanks to this, the injured person will be sure that help will come soon.

iOnRoad Augmented Driving warns of accidents and supports driving in real time. Visual radar maps objects in front of the truck, calculating its current speed using sensors. When the vehicle approaches the danger, an audiovisual warning appears to warn the driver of any collision.

ICE Card is an emergency application. It has a simple interface, so you can call for help with just one touch of the screen. In a life-threatening situation, the tool also provides information to paramedics, such as blood type, allergies, chronic diseases or contraindications for treatment.
