Daily Vehicle Inspection App

Whether you use a vehicle for personal or business reasons  — for long or short journeys — carrying out a daily vehicle walkaround check is strongly advised and can be extremely beneficial. For some drivers or vehicle owners across the UK, these checks are mandatory and represent an important everyday task. This is the case for HGV drivers, for example. Each day, before starting their first journey, HGV drivers are legally required to inspect both the interior and exterior of their vehicle to ensure that it is in a roadworthy condition. Vehicle checks before driving are mandatory for HGV drivers. During these checks, they must make a note of any defects that they may find and assess their severity. In the case where issues are found and are deemed to be dangerous or pose a risk to other road users, these must be repaired before the vehicle can be driven again.

Using the FleetGO daily vehicle inspection app, drivers can make use of a handy digital checklist tool detailing the parts of their vehicle that should be checked. Split up into various logical sections, the digital checklist comprises pre-defined fields along with open text fields where drivers can include additional or more detailed information. Finer details on what to look out for when inspecting each component are also included. What’s more, daily vehicle checks can be recorded and submitted via the app itself. All daily vehicle walkaround reports are stored securely within the FleetGO cloud and are available to access within the app at any time of day from wherever you are.

By creating a stress-free daily vehicle inspection routine with the help of the FleetGO app, you’re keeping yourself, your vehicle and other road users as safe as possible on the nation’s roads.
