VANCOUVER, CANADA, October 1, 2013 – Aegis Mobility, the global leader in solutions to prevent distracted driving, announced today that it has become the newest CNA Allied vendor.

Through this partnership, Aegis will offer FleetSafer to CNA customers through its Allied Vendor program in an effort to help their customers reduce the costs and risks of vehicle accidents and protect their mobile employees on the road. The program will provide CNA customers with access to preferred pricing and free trials of the product.

Driver distraction from the use of smartphones and tablets in vehicles is a leading cause of accidents and significant source of cost and risk to businesses. FleetSafer is software for smart phones and tablets that automatically detects the driving state, locks the keyboard and silences all alerts when driving. FleetSafer is easily deployed through email, SMS or through a mobile device management (MDM) system.

Olen Vanderleeden, Vice-President of Sales and Business Development for Aegis Mobility, commented, “CNA is demonstrating leadership in the space by proactively addressing the leading cause of vehicle accidents and offering solutions to their customers. Together we will help raise awareness with their customers and present them with an option to address the problem of distracted driving.”

“CNA believes it is important to take an active role in addressing the dangers of distracted driving and helping our customers keep their employees and others safe on the road. FleetSafer, from Aegis Mobility, is an important part of our ongoing efforts to combat distracted driving,” said Bill Boyd, Senior Vice President, Risk Control for CNA.

In 2007, CNA developed its Allied Vendor Program to provide customers with access to additional risk control programming designed to create safer, more secure work environments. With more than a dozen participating companies, the Allied Vendor Program remains a key resource for mitigating risk and delivering on CNA's commitment to show its customers more.
