GrabRentals: Telematics-Based Safety Programme

GrabRentals Telematics-Based Safety Programme

By invitation only

Your safety is a top priority for GrabRentals. That’s why we are running a 3-months Telematics-Based Safety Programme quarterly where participants stand to earn up to 12,000 wheels just by driving safely!

What is the Telematics Based Safety Programme?

A safey score* is calculated weekly based on your driving behaviour

You will receive a weekly in-app notification reflecting your latest safety score

Achieve a high monthly score and you’ll be able to earn rebates!

*The safety score is calculated based on 3 types of events: 

Harsh Braking – Number of hard braking counts detected 
Speeding Records – Total number of days with speeding violations 
Harsh Cornering – Number of times that you make a turn at a high speed

Scoring events are triggered by the driver’s driving behaviour whenever the vehicle is in use, and cannot be toggled off.

Benefits of improving your safety score

Why should you improve your safety score?

Safe driving allows you to drive with more ease on the road, reducing any further stress and improving your mood.

Komsan Chiyadis

GrabFood delivery-partner, Thailand

COVID-19 has dealt an unprecedented blow to the tourism industry, affecting the livelihoods of millions of workers. One of them was Komsan, an assistant chef in a luxury hotel based in the Srinakarin area.

As the number of tourists at the hotel plunged, he decided to sign up as a GrabFood delivery-partner to earn an alternative income. Soon after, the hotel ceased operations.

Komsan has viewed this change through an optimistic lens, calling it the perfect opportunity for him to embark on a fresh journey after his previous job. Aside from GrabFood deliveries, he now also picks up GrabExpress jobs. It can get tiring, having to shuttle between different locations, but Komsan finds it exciting. And mostly, he’s glad to get his income back on track.
