Positive results are visible when there is a solid commitment to safety, which impacts fleet management as a whole. Changing driver behavior is a key part of reducing fines, reducing expenses, optimizing operations and, most importantly, avoid accidents and preserve lives.
But how to achieve these results? An effective strategy that certainly worked for Stone was the investment in telemetry for motorcycles, which reduced the number of accidents by half. To find out more about the success story, just continue reading.

The challenges of Stone's motorcycle fleet
Brazilian fintech Stone, specialized in financial services for entrepreneurs from different sectors, faced a series of challenges in managing its fleet of motorcycles. They represent, on average, around 25% of the total number of vehicles.
Kessia Klein, safety and fleet leader, highlighted the main obstacles faced and highlighted that the decision to invest in technology for the motorcycle fleet was motivated by several reasons.
“We had no visibility of the speeding and the certainty that speed, in fact, was an impact factor in the accident or if there were other factors. Furthermore, we didn’t have accurate board/driver control,” he explains.

Telemetry for motorcycles was the solution
In 2019, Stone implemented the telemetry system from Golfleet across its fleet of motorcycles. The technology allowed detailed monitoring of each vehicle and driver, offering essential data for security management.
“A telemetry It was essential to know which driver was operating which motorcycle at that moment and help collect information that would help us act on safety issues”, said Kessia Klein.

Result: number of accidents drops by half
Over 3 years, Stone achieved an impressive 50% reduction in the number of accidents. This success was the result of well-thought-out strategies.
“We achieved this gain through three joint actions: we created an individual speed indicator, carried out various awareness training sessions on the topic and frequently publicized the results achieved, demonstrating the gains by following the indicator”, he celebrates.
With access to speed indicators, each driver is now monitored individually, allowing you to identify and correct risky behaviors in a more realistic way.
Data is essential for this more accurate approach, based on indicators that Golfleet's telemetry for motorcycle fleets delivers:
- Fuel efficiency
- Fuel purchase price
- Maintenance expenses
- Tire expenses
- Speeding
For Kessia Klein, the role of technology in fleet management is fundamental, as it helps in collecting information that would be impossible without the use of telemetry. The gains, in turn, go much further and impact not only the company, but society as a whole by promoting safer traffic.

The benefits of Golfleet motorcycle telemetry
The benefits of telemetry for motorcycles don’t stop at individual safety. Accuracy in data collection leads to more efficient fleet management, reducing operating costs and increasing the useful life of vehicles.
All of this contributes to improving driver performance, in addition to allowing more accurate monitoring of your behavior on the streets and roads, with detailed data that also allows:
- Monitor the trajectory
- Track changes in speed
- Calculate the best routes
- Define fleet policy
- Make shooting control
- Establish fuel management
Stone's success story demonstrates the importance and effectiveness of telemetry for motorcycles. This example highlights how the combination of technology and strategic actions can transform fleet management.
Golfleet has proven to be an essential partner in reducing accidents and promoting a safer environment.
