Is a standard walk-around vehicle check enough to keep your vehicles safe and roadworthy?
Every transport operator knows that it is crucial to carry out a thorough walk-around check before their journey, but is a simple checklist enough?
Standard checklists are a great starting point to ensure safety and roadworthiness, but every vehicle and fleet is different. Additional hardware may have been installed in vehicles, specialist loading equipment may need to be checked, and additional safety measures may be needed in certain industries, which can’t be recorded on a standard paper checklists.
A walk-around check should be more than just a tick-box exercise. Digital checks allows transport managers to customise and build checklists based on their fleet, and ensures all the correct measures are being taken to ensure drivers and vehicles are safe, ensures consistancy is kept across your fleet, and maintains vehicle compliance.
