Case Study: Cargo Transporters achieves reduced fraudulent claims and litigation costs with Lytx Driver Safety Program

Cargo Transporters reduces fraudulent claims costs with the Lytx Driver Safety Program

Cargo Transporters, a North Carolina–based truckload and dry van carrier ranked among Inbound Logistics’ Top 100, was grappling with accidents, rising litigation and frequent fraudulent claims that wrongfully accused drivers. The safety department was largely reactive, spending excessive time and money on disputes and court costs that hurt the company’s bottom line.

Cargo outfitted its entire fleet with the Lytx Driver Safety Program (DriveCam event recorders), combined video review, professional analysis and targeted driver coaching, and educated drivers to gain buy-in. The program exonerated drivers in multiple cases—saving $50K–$100K per claim and paying for itself after two wins—while driving measurable safety gains: an 83% decrease in rear collisions, a 76% reduction in traffic violations and a 33% drop in unbelted drivers, plus a shift from reactive to proactive risk management.
