Do you manage more than 5 drivers and vehicles over 3.5 tonnes that require tachograph data downloads? The platform’s driver and vehicle compliance report helps you assess your fleet and identify findings that need your attention.
Running a transport company means keeping track of driver activities and your fleet alongside organising transport operations. The more drivers and vehicles you manage, the more challenging it becomes to review individual records.
Which drivers have recorded infringements? Are any vehicles showing overspeeding events, missing mileage or faults? Where should you focus your attention first?
A combined driver and vehicle report brings key findings together in one place, helping you prioritise action.
Why are tachograph data downloads alone not enough?
Downloading and storing tachograph data are important parts of your record keeping. To understand what is happening across your business, you also need to interpret that data.
If you download data without analysing it, you may overlook recurring infringements, overspeeding events or incomplete records. For a company with more than 5 drivers, it can be difficult to build a clear overview of the entire fleet quickly from individual reports.
Tachograph data analysis helps answer a practical question: where do we need to take action first?
What does the driver report show?
The platform’s report displays driver scores and identified infringements. This overview helps you identify drivers whose activities need closer review.
For the person responsible for transport operations, it provides a basis for:
- reviewing specific infringements;
- discussing findings with the driver;
- identifying the need for further guidance or training;
- assessing whether transport planning contributes to recurring issues.
Always consider the score alongside the specific findings. This helps you determine an appropriate next step for each driver.
What does the vehicle report show?
The vehicle overview includes a score and findings such as overspeeding events, missing mileage and recorded faults.
These findings guide further checks:
- Overspeeding events: review the recorded events and their circumstances.
- Missing mileage: check whether the available data is complete and investigate any gaps.
- Faults: review the type of fault and assign someone to investigate it.
An individual finding does not explain its cause on its own. The report shows you where to start, while the details help you decide on the appropriate action.
What does a score from 0 to 100 mean?
The report displays a score from 0 to 100 and four status categories:
| Category | How to Use It During Your Review |
|---|---|
| No Infringements | No infringements have been identified in the data reviewed. Continue regular monitoring. |
| Good Condition | Review any findings and maintain regular checks. |
| Attention Required | Investigate the highlighted findings and decide on the next steps. |
| High Risk | Prioritise a detailed review and determine the necessary action. |
The score provides a quick overview, while the specific findings explain what needs your attention.
When interpreting the results, also consider the analysis period and the availability of data. If data is missing, the report cannot provide a complete picture of activities.
The score is a management tool, not an official certification of your company’s legal compliance.
How can you turn findings into practical action?
The report is most useful when each significant finding has a person responsible for following it up and a clear next step.
1. Review high-risk areas first.
Examine the details and identify what needs priority attention.
2. Check that the data is complete.
Missing data can limit the review. Investigate any gaps before drawing conclusions.
3. Discuss the causes.
For driver infringements, review the specific circumstances. For vehicle faults, decide who will carry out further checks.
4. Assign responsibility and set a deadline.
Every significant finding should have a clear next step.
5. Check for recurring issues during the next analysis.
This helps you assess whether the actions taken have helped and which areas still need attention.
Tachograph data analysis then becomes part of your routine driver and fleet management.
Who is the driver and vehicle compliance report for?
The combined report is particularly useful for transport companies with more than 5 drivers operating vehicles over 3.5 tonnes that are subject to tachograph data download requirements.
It is designed for business owners, directors, transport managers and fleet managers who want to:
- review multiple drivers and vehicles in one place;
- identify areas that need attention more quickly;
- prioritise action;
- make decisions based on findings from their data.
Order a standalone report or access it through your licence
You can order the report separately or access it as part of your TachoSafe Web licence.
A standalone report is an option for companies that need a review of a specific period. Access through a licence allows you to make the report part of your regular work with the platform.
