CLAREMONT, N.C.,
March 22,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Cargo Transporters, Inc., a
truckload, dry van carrier is proud to announce the adoption of
Stoneridge, Inc.'s (NYSE: SRI) MirrorEye® Camera Monitor
System (CMS), a cutting-edge system designed to provide the driver
with a more complete view of operating conditions over traditional
truck mirrors. This milestone marks a significant advancement in
the company's ongoing commitment to enhancing road safety and
operational efficiency.
MirrorEye offers numerous advantages over conventional mirrors,
including improved visibility in all weather conditions, reduced
blind spots, and enhanced night vision. By providing a wider field
of view, the system greatly improves drivers' ability to detect and
respond to road hazards.
"The MirrorEye system will dramatically enhance the overall
visibility around the truck during normal driving, backing, and
night driving," said Dennis
Dellinger, president and CEO of Cargo Transporters,
Inc. "After testing MirrorEye for a year and collecting
driver feedback, we have chosen this to be our next investment in
on-highway truck technology to assist our drivers. We have already
started fleet installations on all new vehicles going into service
and will retrofit vehicles that were pre-wired over the last year
in anticipation of our adoption of the system."
The adoption of MirrorEye is part of Cargo Transporters'
comprehensive safety program. This initiative underscores the
company's dedication to maintaining its position as an industry
leader in safety and efficiency.
"We are proud to partner with leading fleets, such as Cargo
Transporters, to deliver cutting-edge technology that enhances
safety and redefines the driving experience," said Jim Zizelman, president and CEO, Stoneridge.
Drivers equipped with the MirrorEye system have reported
significant improvements in situational awareness and comfort. "The
difference is night and day," said one of Cargo Transporters'
drivers, Sheila Hudon. "MirrorEye
not only gives me a better view of what's around me, but it also
reduces strain."
