HAAS Alert

Škoda expands HAAS Alert Safety Cloud across Europe, delivering in-vehicle emergency vehicle alerts to help responders move faster and more safely through traffic.

South East Coast Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust (SECAmb) was the first ambulance service in Europe to deploy HAAS Alert’s Safety Cloud digital alerting system across its fleet, establishing a new standard for connected vehicle safety in emergency services.

A year ago, South East Coast Ambulance Service set a new standard for emergency services in Europe. By rolling out digital alerting across its ambulance fleet, SECAmb actively embraced technology to protect crews, patients, and local communities. The service’s approach shows how digital alerting can enhance safety and efficiency, providing a model for other services to follow, writes HAAS Alert’s Gareth Evans.

Collisions involving UK emergency vehicles cost services an estimated £150m a year. A new partnership between HAAS Alert and Standby Group aims to reduce that risk by giving drivers crucial advance warnings of approaching emergency vehicles and roadside hazards.

Škoda is now offering real-time emergency vehicle alerts in its cars through the integration of HAAS Alert’s Safety Cloud, marking a significant step in connected vehicle safety in Europe.

Surrey Fire and Rescue Service has joined HAAS Alert’s Safety Cloud network, which enables real-time alerting between emergency vehicles and the motoring public for safer and smarter roads.

Avon Fire & Rescue Service has become the first fire and rescue service in Europe to equip its fleet with digital alerting.

Gareth Evans from Haas Alert is joined by David Crombie from ACETECH for this conversation at The Emergency Services Show where they talk about how Haas Alert’s Safety Cloud is now being used for the first time by a UK ambulance service. South East Coast Ambulance Service is now using Safety Cloud, thanks to an integration led by partner ACETECH meaning that drivers now can see when ambulances in this region are approaching on blue lights well ahead of seeing them.

A new pilot programme is underway at South East Coast Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust (SECAMB) that will see the service’s vehicles become the first ambulance fleet in Europe to be equipped with Safety Cloud digital alerting system.

First responders are everyday people who simply want to help their communities. But achieving that goal comes with a great struggle. Gareth Evans, Director of Strategy and Business Development at HAAS Alert explains more.
