Atlanta – March 21, 2012 – NexTraq™, the value leader of GPS fleet tracking and vehicle management solutions, today announces a partnership with GMAC Insurance, one of the largest automobile insurers in the United States. As a result of the partnership, companies that have the NexTraq GPS Fleet Tracking platform are eligible for significant insurance discounts for their commercial fleets.

Mark Roberts, CMO of NexTraq, said, “The combination of GPS tracking and insurance is becoming commonplace in the personal insurance sector.
