Idle reduction programs
['Fuel Management']
- Maintenance managers might consider various ways to decrease a driver’s idling time.
Idle reduction can be accomplished through various programs. The maintenance manager will need to be actively involved in the programs. As an example, if the carrier decides to implement a driver fuel bonus program, the implementation will need to include initiating the use of hardware to track the actual percentage of idle.
