Add an alert on the object

An alert is a notification that is generated when a specific event or condition occurs, such as a vehicle going over a certain speed limit or a driver exceeding their allotted hours of service. Alerts can be configured to notify fleet managers or other designated personnel via email, text message, or other means, allowing them to quickly respond to potential issues and maintain compliance with regulations.
