Compliance, licences & maintenance

Know your drivers are legally fit to be behind the wheel.

Tracking Guardian automates the compliance jobs that usually live on a clipboard: DVLA driver licence checks, MOT and tax monitoring, daily walkaround checks, maintenance reminders, Working Time Directive flags and incident records — all evidenced, all in one portal.

DVLA Driver Data

Automatic driver licence checking.

Tracking Guardian integrates directly with the DVLA Driver Data service — giving you automated, real-time checks on every driver's licence status, penalty points and endorsements. No more manual checks, no more clipboard compliance.

  • Licence validity checks — instantly flag expired, suspended or revoked licences before a driver gets in a vehicle.
  • Penalty point monitoring — automatic alerts when a driver accumulates points. Know before your insurance company does.
  • Endorsement history — full endorsement records per driver: disqualifications, speeding convictions and restrictions.
  • Insurance compliance — evidence of due diligence for your insurers. Automated checks replace manual annual reviews.

Daily checks & incidents

Walkaround checks and incident records, evidenced.

Drivers complete 10-point pre-start walkaround checks in the mobile app before setting off. Defects are photographed, logged and escalated automatically — and if the worst happens, accident and breakdown reports are submitted from the roadside with photos, location and description, then managed through to resolution in the portal.

  • 10-point digital walkaround checks with photo evidence
  • Defect register with escalation and resolution tracking
  • Incident reports linked to tracking data and dashcam footage
  • Driver timesheets with automatic Working Time Directive flagging

FAQ

Compliance, answered.

Is the DVLA integration official?
Yes — Tracking Guardian integrates with the official DVLA Driver Data service (MyLicence), the same service used by insurers, giving you automated real-time licence, penalty point and endorsement checks.
What do insurers think of this?
Automated licence checking, daily walkaround records, maintenance histories and dashcam evidence are exactly the due-diligence trail insurers ask fleets for. Many customers find claims resolve faster and premiums respond over time.
How do Working Time Directive flags work?
Driver timesheets are generated automatically from ignition data — first start, last stop and driving hours per day. When a driver approaches or breaches Working Time thresholds, it's flagged in the portal and in scheduled reports.
