Compliance & Safety

Compliance handled.
Drivers protected.

ELD, DVIR, IFTA and driver safety all run on the Geotab data you’re already collecting. We set them up, configure the rules for your fleet, and keep you audit-ready — so compliance stops being a scramble.

What we cover

Four obligations, one platform.

Hours of service, inspections, fuel tax and safety are usually four separate headaches. On Geotab they run from one system — and we make sure each one is set up right for the way your fleet operates.

ELD & Hours of Service

Electronic logging that keeps drivers within hours-of-service limits automatically. Records of duty status come from the engine, not paper — cutting form-and-manner errors and keeping you ready for roadside inspections and audits.

DVIR Inspections

Digital driver vehicle inspection reports for pre- and post-trip checks. Defects are logged on a phone or tablet, flagged instantly, and flow straight into maintenance so nothing slips between the driver and the shop.

IFTA Fuel Tax

Automatic distance-by-jurisdiction tracking for fuel-tax reporting. Geotab calculates the miles per state and province for you, turning quarterly IFTA filing from a spreadsheet marathon into a few clicks — with a clean audit trail.

Driver Safety

Turn telematics into safer driving. Harsh events, speeding and seatbelt use become a safety score, in-cab coaching corrects behaviour in the moment, and optional dash cams add video context to protect your drivers and your business.

How we help

Set up right, not just switched on.

Compliance tools only work when they’re configured for how your fleet actually runs. That part is on us.

Map your rules

We configure HOS rulesets, inspection forms and jurisdictions to match your operation and where you run.

Install & verify

Devices installed and data validated so your logs, distances and defects are accurate from day one.

Train your team

Drivers and back office are walked through the apps and workflows — not just handed a login.

Keep you audit-ready

Ongoing support so you stay compliant as rules, routes and your fleet change over time.

Built on Geotab, backed by specialists

The compliance and safety features come from Geotab’s platform — the difference is having a partner who configures them for your fleet and stays with you afterward. Set the rules once, set them right, and stop worrying about audit season.

FAQ

Compliance questions, answered.

What is an ELD and does my fleet need one?

An ELD (Electronic Logging Device) automatically records a driver’s hours of service from the vehicle’s engine instead of on paper. Most commercial fleets operating under hours-of-service rules in the U.S. and Canada are required to run one. We’ll confirm whether the mandate applies to your vehicles and get you compliant.

How does Geotab handle IFTA reporting?

Geotab automatically tracks the distance travelled in each state and province, so your fuel-tax mileage is calculated for you. Instead of piecing together trip sheets, you get a clean, audit-ready IFTA summary each quarter.

Can DVIR inspections connect to our maintenance?

Yes. Digital DVIR defects flow straight into work orders, so a driver’s flagged issue reaches the shop immediately instead of sitting on paper — one of the advantages of running compliance and maintenance on one platform.

What safety features come with Geotab?

Geotab scores driving behaviour such as harsh braking, speeding and seatbelt use, supports in-cab audible coaching, and integrates dash cams for video context. We configure the safety rules and thresholds that fit your fleet.

Do you set it up, or is it self-serve?

We set it up. Our specialists configure the rulesets, install and validate the devices, and train your team — so the tools are working correctly for your operation, not just switched on.
