For fleets, roadside assistance and utilities
Their back is to traffic. We tell them what's coming.
At the roadside, the technician faces the vehicle they're working on — hands busy, head down, one lane from traffic. RDWRX, the RoadDefender work zone safety platform, rides on the truck and watches the approach for them.

A different kind of work zone
A roadside call has no taper, no crew and no lookout.
Most work zone protection is built for a crew on a planned job. A service call is one person, a few minutes, wherever the vehicle stopped.
A planned construction job
- A crew, often with a supervisor or flagger watching traffic
- Signs, cones and a taper set up in advance
- The same location for days or weeks
- A safety plan written for that site
A roadside service call
- One technician, working alone
- The truck, its lights and a few minutes to set up
- A new location every call, day and night
- Attention on the vehicle, not the lane
What changes on the scene
The truck watches the road. The technician gets a cue.
The unit rides on the truck, with the computer sealed in a box on the vehicle. It decides on the spot — no gateway, no server, no round trip.
It watches the approach
Doppler radar reads traffic against the speed set for the site and against measured traffic.
Pre-cue, then cue
A light buzz when something out there is wrong. A cue to look up and face traffic, repeating while the condition lasts.
It keeps the record
Every pre-cue and cue is logged with time, GPS, vehicle speed and video of the approach.
Fits your PPE rules
Worn the way your safety policy allows.
The cue is haptic and visual, so it doesn't have to compete with traffic noise. The wearable is multipositional, so a no-jewelry policy doesn't rule it out.
On the wrist
The default for most technicians and crews.
On the hat
For crews whose policy keeps anything off the wrist.
In a pocket
Close to the body, so the cue is still hard to miss.
What your operations team sees
The fleet view lives at the office, not on the shoulder.
Nobody at the scene touches a screen. Your dispatch or safety team sees the whole fleet in one place.
Trucks out and protected
Which units are running, where, and which technicians are covered.
Cues across the fleet
Every cue triggered, with time, GPS and vehicle speed.
Video of the approach
Captured for each event, so you know what the technician faced.
Roadside exposure by region
Traffic speed and volume at service locations, pooled over time.
Who it's built for
Anyone whose job puts one person beside live traffic.
Roadside assistance
Technicians changing tires, jump-starting and loading on the shoulder.
Towing and recovery
Operators hooking up and winching with their attention on the vehicle.
Utility crews
Small crews on short roadside stops across a wide territory.
Highway maintenance
Mobile crews moving between short jobs along the road.
How a fleet rollout runs
Start with a few trucks. Scale on what the record shows.
01 · Pilot
A few trucks, one region.
Success criteria agreed before install. Technicians wear the cue; your ops team gets the fleet view.
02 · Review
Read the record together.
We go through the cues, speeds and video with your safety and operations leads.
03 · Scale
Region by region.
One unit per truck, rolled out at the pace your fleet and budget allow.

Questions fleets ask
The short answers.
Does the technician need to set anything up at the scene?
No. The unit rides on the truck. The technician wears the cue; there's no screen to touch on scene.
Does it work where there's no cell coverage?
Yes. Protection runs at the work point without a network. Only the remote fleet view and live video need coverage.
What does the technician wear?
A Samsung-validated wearable that can sit on the wrist, the hat or in a pocket, depending on your PPE rules.
Does it replace our lights, cones or traffic control?
No. RoadDefender is supplemental to existing work zone safety measures.
