Heavy-duty truck floor mats deteriorate and become a safety hazard when they curl up and slide near the pedals, but fleet operators lack a reliable way to detect or prevent this.
No proactive system to monitor floor mat condition; current methods rely on infrequent manual checks or driver reporting, which often fails.
