4 Manage Drivers

A driver is a person who drives a fleet vehicle and is a registered user with a driver role. The driver when added to an organization, is responsible for the safe operation of the assigned vehicles and route planning of trips and shipments of that organization.

Drivers use the Oracle IoT Fleet Monitoring Mobile Application to create and manage trips or to start and stop shipments. As an administrator, you can Configure Mobile Application Settings to allow or restrict drivers of an organization to select and update assigned vehicles or to create a trip.
