  • UVV inspection DGUV V70
  • Driving licence check § 21 StVG
  • Driver identification Driver assignment by journey

The vehicle record shows what is missing.

See not only what is complete, but what remains open — for each vehicle, with its cycle, due date and owner.

Initial situation

Responsibility remains with the vehicle operator.

Three ways evidence gets lost — without anyone doing anything wrong.

Deadline

A deadline passes unnoticed

A deadline expires and no one objects. This will be noticed at the next inspection - or after damage.

Document

The evidence is missing

The check took place, but the report is trapped in an inbox nobody monitors.

Responsibility

The person changes

Knowledge goes with the fleet manager. What remains is a table that no one updates.

The core

Every duty ends with dated evidence.

Without a date, it is a reminder rather than evidence.

HU/AU

Recurring inspection under Section 29 StVZO. The dated report is stored against the vehicle's VIN.

UVV inspection

The vehicle is work equipment and is inspected under DGUV Regulation 70. The report records the inspector and date.

Driving licence check

A vehicle may only be entrusted to someone entitled to drive under Section 21 StVG. Evidence is a timestamped check for each driver and vehicle.

Driver identification

Identify the driver from the usage history. The assignment for the relevant period is retained, then deleted after three years by default.

Document retention

Invoices and documents remain traceable. The original document stays unchanged in the vehicle record.

Operator duties and deadlines

Outsourcing does not remove the responsibility.

Vehicle operators must complete the required checks and inspections and keep dated evidence in the vehicle record.

Workflow

From cycle to evidence.

Four steps, after which the duty runs along with the vehicle - not in the head of a single person.

1

Create vehicle

Add vehicles by VIN or CSV, assign inspection cycles and link drivers.

2

Make due dates visible

Due and overdue are listed on the vehicle, not in a separate list.

3

Send reminders in advance

The notice goes to those responsible before the deadline expires. If it stays open, the chain escalates — to the named deputy, otherwise to the company admin.

4

Evidence in the vehicle record

Documents, photos and timestamps stay linked to the VIN, even when responsibilities change.

More details

Every duty has its own detail page.

Five duties and five evidence records, all linked to the same vehicle record.

Frequently asked questions

Can I start with a single vehicle?

Yes. The platform supports one to more than 1,000 vehicles with the same workflow across locations. Add a vehicle by VIN or import a CSV list.

How much does the platform cost?

The software is billed per vehicle. Your quote states the price, which becomes binding only when you place the order.

How long is the usage history stored?

Driver assignments are deleted three years after the usage period ends by default, unless a related fine remains open. The retention period is configurable.

Is this legal advice?

No. Statutory references and intervals are provided for guidance. Applicable law, your contracts and your operational practice remain authoritative.

Duties and evidence

Five duties, one reminder chain.

Each duty leads from its due date to documented completion against the vehicle.

Technical inspection

The appointment and inspection report stay with the vehicle.

Vehicle safety inspection

Inspection under DGUV Regulation 70 with report and date.

Driver safety briefing

Driver training with a test and certificate.

Licence check

Check date and evidence for each driver.

Driver identification

The usage history supports assignment at the time of an incident.

Escalation

If a reminder stays open, it is sent to the assigned deputy.
