How Repwest Succeeds Using LPR Data for U-Haul

As North America’s premier commercial license plate recognition (LPR) data provider, we offer the richest data set and analytics available. For insurers, our extensive database of billions of license plate scans – which include addresses and date/timestamp – can play a major role in fraud cases from vehicle location to collusion, auto theft, workers comp and garaging. With a fleet of over 176,000 trucks and 127,000 trailers, Repwest Insurance  has been using DRN’s Event Links investigative solution since 2018 and is successfully reducing liability and saving money by identifying and proving fraud for rental car & truck companies in the US. 

Repwest Insurance  Success Stories

In each of the following examples, claimants made fraudulent vehicle damage claims to U-HAUL. Using Event Links, Repwest  successfully defended and disputed each of the claims, saving them tens of thousands of dollars.

Example 1: In this case, the claim was made in August 2020 that a U-HAUL truck rear-ended the claimant’s vehicle while both were in motion. LPR photos from April 2020 show the same damage, proving it was pre-existing.

Example 2: This claim was filed in April 2020 and stated that a U-HAUL truck merged into the claimant’s lane, striking the wheel and back bumper on the driver’s side. Photos taken in November 2019 show the same, pre-existing damage.
