Exponential economic development can be attributed as the cause. However, with this monumental increase comes a host of problems.<\/p>\n<p>The primary issue that forays to the top is management of such a large volume of vehicles. The infrastructure of the country, especially in urban areas, is swiftly improving. Yet it is still difficult to manage these many automobiles on the road. As a result, the concerned authorities are experiencing massive traffic and congestion, along with a decline in vehicle safety.<\/p>\n<div class=\"css-wp-form\">\n<h3>Get LocoNav\u2019s Government

It is a globally proven system that allows the transport authority to gain control of the entire transportation movement in the country. The AIS guidelines were formulated as a consequence. AIS 140 guidelines are one among them.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Automotive Industry Standard 140 (AIS 140), it is mandatory for all public transport and commercial vehicles to deploy vehicle tracking systems with camera surveillance and emergency buttons. The transport authorities are tasked with ensuring that all stipulated vehicles abide by the guidelines laid down by the standard.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em>Also Read:<\/em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #1eacb2;\"><a style=\"color: #1eacb2;\" href=\"https:\/\/loconav.com\/blog\/why-ais-140-is-the-need-of-the-hour\/\"><em>Why AIS 140 is the need of the hour?<\/em><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><strong>How to comply with AIS 140 Guidelines?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>To ensure that your vehicle is in line with the AIS 140 standard, you will need to install a GPS vehicle tracking system, along with an emergency request button.

Some of the AIS 140 advantages are mentioned below:<b>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In the event of any mishap or emergency, the transport authority can effectively locate the vehicle in distress and send assistance to deal with it. This also provides the passengers the means to contact the emergency services directly if they are under distress.<\/li>\n<li>Public transport is subject to rash driving and mishandling of the vehicle. With this standard, the driver behaviour and driving pattern can be monitored so as to ensure public safety.<\/li>\n<li>The transport industry can finally segue into a technological transformation. AIS 140 can be the launch pad for including Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) in the Indian transport sector.<a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.loconav&amp;referrer=utm_source%3DReferral%26utm_medium%3DTelematics_blog%26utm_term%3DTelematics_blog%26anid%3Dadmob\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4515 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/loconav.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/BL-Ad-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"728\" height=\"90\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loconav.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/BL-Ad-1.png 728w, https:\/\/loconav.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/BL-Ad-1-300x37.png 300w, https:\/\/loconav.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/BL-Ad-1-600x74.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 728px) 100vw, 728px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Who needs AIS 140?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The\u00a0Automotive Industry Standard 140\u00a0is required by:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bus: Intercity and intracity public buses, along with intercity and intracity private ones.<\/li>\n<li>Taxi: Car rentals, bus\/taxi fleet owners, corporate fleets, taxi hailing service providers<\/li>\n<li>Schools, Universities and corporate bus operators.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Concerns Regarding the Standard<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>While this move by the Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) is being applauded, it has also come under scrutiny.
