Revolutionize your fleet & optimize compliance.
Patron is your preferred authorized Geotab reseller — your go-to destination for top-tier Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs), GPS, asset tracking, and AI-powered dash cams. We equip you with the highest-quality, most innovative tools to streamline operations, ensure safety, and deliver cost savings.
The compliance burden is real.
Telematics isn't optional anymore. ELDs are federally mandated for property-carrying commercial motor vehicles. Insurance carriers increasingly require dash cams. Asset trackers are the only practical way to prevent trailer theft.
But buying hardware is the easy part. The real value — the part that protects you in an audit, lowers your insurance premium, and exonerates your driver after a crash — is the data. And the data only matters if it's configured correctly, reviewed regularly, and tied to the rest of your compliance program.
Patron integrates Geotab's industry-leading platform with our day-to-day compliance work. We configure your ELDs, audit your HOS records, train your drivers on personal-conveyance and yard-move discipline, and dispute roadside violations using the telematics evidence.
Real-world compliance failures we've seen carriers face.
Not hypothetical — these are scenarios that show up in our intake calls every month.
False log books = HOS violation cluster
Pre-ELD, a carrier was caught falsifying paper logs at a roadside inspection. The audit that followed unearthed three months of violations — driver hours falsified, fuel receipts inconsistent with logs. CSA score destroyed, customer audits triggered.
Stolen trailer, no GPS
A flatbed carrier had a $90,000 trailer stolen from a customer yard. No GPS tracker — police took the report but nothing to act on. Insurance paid out at depreciated value. Trailer never recovered. Asset tracker would have cost $200/year.
Crash without dash cam
Driver was rear-ended at a light. Other party claimed our driver braked-checked. Without forward-facing dash cam, it was he-said-she-said. Settlement paid 30% comparative fault. With dash cam, would have been 100% the other party.
Patron handles all of it.
Typical use cases.
New ELD mandate compliance
You're running paper logs and you need to switch. Patron picks the right ELD for your operation, installs it, trains your drivers, and handles the FMCSA registration.
High-claim insurance customer
Your insurance is going up because of accidents. Dash cams + driver coaching reports can drop your loss ratio fast — and your premium next renewal.
Trailer theft prevention
You drop trailers at customer yards. Asset trackers give you a real-time map and a recovery path — well worth the $200/year per trailer.
Patron set up Geotab across our 26-truck operation in under a week. The HOS audits they run monthly have caught two violations before they ever showed up in roadside data. Worth every penny.
