SAFER ENVIRONMENTS
When a trailer stops on the shoulder, visibility is everything. Phillips Connect Roadside Safety Intelligence features a high-frequency lighting pattern, making stopped trailers nearly impossible to miss.
SMART PROTECTION
Phillips Connect Roadside Intelligence includes digital hazard alerting so stopped trailers are visible and surrounding drivers are warned in real time through its partnership with Emergency Safety Solutions (ESS).
H.E.L.P.® (Hazard Enhanced Location Protocol) Digital Alerts warn approaching drivers through navigation apps and in-dash systems before the stopped trailer is in sight.
When the driver engages the hazard lights, H.E.L.P.® Lighting Alerts designed to attract significantly more attention than standard hazard flashers.
Documented hazard alerts support DOT compliance and provide a record of active safety measures that reduce fleet liability.

ROADSIDE SAFETY QUESTIONS
Through a partnership with Emergency Safety Solutions (ESS), the Phillips Connect platform activates H.E.L.P.® (Hazard Enhanced Location Protocol) when a trailer is stopped on the shoulder. In the Class 8 fleet context, H.E.L.P.® is deployed as H.E.L.P. DeliverSAFE®, ESS’s configuration for commercial trucks and trailers.
When a driver activates the hazard lights, H.E.L.P.® Lighting Alerts flash the trailer’s lights in a distinctive high-visibility pattern, while H.E.L.P.® Digital Alerts send real-time warnings to approaching drivers through navigation apps and in-dash systems, giving them earlier awareness before the stopped trailer is in sight.
Earlier Awareness. Smarter Actions. Safer Roads. Emergency Safety Solutions (ESS) is an Advance Warning Solutions company dedicated to reducing secondary collisions and protecting stopped vehicle occupants, roadside workers, and approaching drivers.
ESS delivers advance warning through H.E.L.P.® Lighting Alerts, H.E.L.P.® Digital Alerts, and the H.E.L.P.® Alert Network.
