Drivewyze PreClear is designed to reward fleets with strong safety records by increasing bypass opportunities, which can lead to improved operational efficiency and reduced inspection-related downtime. While PreClear itself does not directly alter a fleet’s safety score, consistent use of the service indirectly supports better safety performance, regulatory compliance, and overall score management.

Here’s how it works:

When a fleet has a favorable safety profile—measured through factors like Compliance, Safety, Accountability (CSA) scores in the U.S. or equivalent safety programs in Canada—its vehicles are more likely to qualify for bypasses at participating inspection sites. The better the safety score, the higher the likelihood of receiving a bypass notification through Drivewyze.

By reducing the number of unnecessary inspections for low-risk carriers, PreClear helps drivers avoid delays, stay on schedule, and maintain momentum on the road. Fewer interruptions contribute to reduced stress and fatigue, creating a safer driving environment overall.

Additionally, bypassing inspections reduces the chances of incurring violations that can negatively impact safety scores. Every inspection carries the risk of potential infractions—even minor equipment or documentation issues can result in CSA points or enforcement actions. By qualifying for more bypasses, fleets minimize exposure to these risks.

PreClear also serves as an incentive for fleets to prioritize safety and compliance. Carriers with strong safety practices—such as maintaining equipment, conducting regular inspections, and supporting driver training—see the tangible benefit of increased bypass rates, reinforcing a culture of safety throughout the organization.

For fleets with lower safety scores, PreClear can still provide bypass opportunities, but they may occur less frequently. In these cases, the service highlights the importance of addressing safety issues to improve bypass eligibility and reduce inspection frequency over time.

In summary, while Drivewyze PreClear does not directly change safety scores, it plays an important role in supporting safer operations, rewarding compliant fleets, and providing clear incentives for maintaining excellent safety performance.
