LESSON 1 / 2 · Start with the right driver and truck

Start with the right driver and truck

Sign in, verify equipment, and check the connection before moving.

Sign in before starting work

Sign in with your own account before moving. Confirm the driver and current truck so activity belongs to the right person and equipment.

Enter your Fleet ID, username, and password in the Samsara Driver App, then tap Sign In. Select and confirm the truck you will actually drive.

Make the equipment match the trip

From the home screen, open Assets → Vehicle to change trucks. Select Trailers when enabled by your fleet, and update the shipping ID for this load.
