Driver scoring

This article is about the practice of evaluating driver performance. For other uses, see Telematics.

Driver scoring, also known as driver behavior scoring, is the process of evaluating a driver's performance by collecting and analyzing data related to their driving habits to create standardized driver profiles and improve energy-efficient driving. This is accomplished using in-vehicle data recorders and telematics devices that gather information directly from the vehicle. The goal is to create an objective measure of a driver's safety and efficiency, often represented as a numerical score.

The practice is widely used in modern fleet management systems to assess risk and promote safer, more economical driving habits.
