Indian government is going to implement setting of black boxes, radio tags and overload sensors in trucks


The road transport ministry in India is thinking to put in black boxes (which are applied in plane), radio-tags and overload-sensors in trucks. It is widely used in USA to prevent road accident.

The Indian government is going to issue an order to all leading auto manufacturers like Tata Motors, Maruti and Bajaj, to think about fitting IT-enabled gadgets to get better safety of vehicles, aid track them and decrease clogging at toll plazas.

The black boxes alias event data recorders will be useful to present a picture of events preceding a crash.
In the US, vehicles based black boxes are programmed to make active the minute air bags get inflated. The government is going to adapt this in local ways In India as there are always possibilities for rear-end collisions, side collisions and so on.

The government will soon announce to get it obligatory for new trucks to be fitted with radio frequency identification (RFID) tags in order to make all toll plazas RFID-enabled in two years with the intention that tax can be electronically taken away as a vehicle move across.

Identification of any truck at any moment will be possible for security agencies if the trucks are provided with RFID tags.

The government also ordered auto manufacturers to set up overload sensors in new trucks. If a truck is overloaded with weight beyond its capacity, the sensors can instantly deactivate the electrical circuit.

Under Section 114 of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, if a vehicle is carrying overload, the surplus weight should have been off-loaded at the expense of the vehicle's driver. This is in addition to a penalty and compounding fee that will be charged prior to the vehicle is permissible to go on.

Suain logistics is offering a wide array of benefits for truckers and loaders through their online load board


Load board concept was widely used in America & Canada for more than 15 years for making the transportation system more advanced and speedy. Now-a-days load board concept is also emerging in India.
A loadboard, otherwise known as a freight board is a web based bulletin board useful for Shippers, carriers and their intermediaries to dispatch/match their services online.  
A bigger portion of freight containing 1 billion tons per year all over the country, or 20% of all commercial truck freight is being moved on load boards.
Through a load board the companies covering freight can meet new carriers requiring hauling loads.  The most important feature of load board is to solve the problem of back load. As for instance a trucker working for a large carrier can get himself at the end of an extended haul and requiring driving home, but not getting a load to pack his truck.  Wanting to stay away from running an empty truck, the trucker’s dispatcher may rely on a load board to get a one-time freight shipment obtainable at the same direction as the trucker.  He can then call the shipper straight to organize a deal, load the truck, and keep away from the cost of driving empty.
Posting a Load
Carriers will illustrate the nature of their equipment required to haul their freight, where the freight is, and where it is to be delivered.  After being posted, the load will be observable to thousands of carriers with millions of trucks who are looking for well-matched loads and calling load providers to settle a deal. 
Searching for Carriers
Carriers will vigorously explore load boards so that they can get freight to match their requirements.  They will also post their trucks, hence shippers and their intermediaries can locate them and contact them directly. 
As for example many trucks lack of a specific destination in mind. Many carriers prefer to set out anywhere ensuring a good load at a reasonable rate.  Carriers often seek freight to pack a “back haul” or a return trip from a previous destination.
