2. Navigate to Custom Safety Zones.
3. Click Add Safety Zone.
4. Select a goal for the safety zone:

   Analyze Driving Behavior:  Monitor speeding and visit frequency without an alert

6. To add an alert, set up the alert geofence. Click Next when the following steps are complete:

7. If Analyzing Driving Behavior, the Risk Data Collection Geofence is automatically placed down the road.
   Resize, rotate or move the zone to the area where you want to capture driving behavior.  For example in a curve, place this over the curve, or in a speed zone, place it further down the road to see if the driver actually slowed down.

   a. The Title is required (max 25 characters)
   b. Optionally add a message. The message will show below the title.
