FAQs
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. When the lights are turned off, the digital alerting stops.
Fleets can activate Safety Cloud through three primary methods, depending on their existing setup:
- Telematics Integration: If a fleet already uses platforms like Geotab, Samsara, or Ericsson, Safety Cloud can often be activated via software integration without new hardware.
- HA-7 Transponder: For older vehicles or those without compatible telematics, a proprietary transponder can be sold.
- OEM Pre-Install: Some manufacturers, such as Pierce Manufacturing, pre-install Safety Cloud as a standard feature on new fire apparatus.
Safety Cloud® is a collision prevention service that sends real-time digital alerts to drivers to warn them of nearby emergency vehicles and roadway hazards. Unlike traditional lights and sirens, which rely on line-of-sight and sound, Safety Cloud uses vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technology to deliver advanced warnings directly to a driver’s navigation app or vehicle dashboard. This gives motorists up to 30 seconds of extra time to slow down and move over, reducing the risk of collisions by up to 90%.
Drivers do not need to download a specific "HAAS Alert" app to receive notifications. Instead, alerts are broadcast directly to the platforms they already use. Currently, Safety Cloud alerts appear on:
- Mobile Apps: Popular Navigation Apps including Waze
- In-Vehicle Infotainment: Compatible vehicles from Stellantis (2018+ Jeep, Dodge, RAM, Chrysler), and Volkswgen
Safety Cloud was developed for all roadside workers, including:
- Emergency Responders: Fire apparatus, ambulances, and police cruisers.
- Essential Fleets: Tow trucks, utility vehicles, waste management trucks, school buses, and snowplows
- Work Zones: Construction vehicles and arrow boards.
