TRAFFIC FINES

Companies can save themselves a lot of money, time and hassle by ensuring that they are fully aware of all traffic offenses committed by their drivers by making use of iFacts' new traffic offence checking service, which will pre-warn motorists of outstanding fines against their name and afford an opportunity to clear any such fines before it ends up in a court appearance.

So many companies find themselves in the situation where their drivers either forget, or simply ignore traffic offenses until it is to late, and then the company sits with the bill – a nightmare which can be multiplied many times over for companies who operate fleets of vehicles, especially if all the vehicles are listed in one person's names as is often the case.

It becomes even more cost effective to do checks on fleets of vehicles using our new service. Not only can it prevent unpleasant incidents, but it can save the company a substantial amount of money, by catching offences before they become contempt of court proceedings as well. In those cases, there is an automatic additional fine of around R400 per offence, irrespective of the original amount of the fine – nearly five times as much as our service costs.

The service - which is already operating in Gauteng , Durban and Cape Town , allows companies or individuals to check up on the number and nature of outstanding fines against their names, and to rectify matters before it becomes a legal problem. The nominal fee of R75 for this service is much less than the cost of hiring a lawyer or losing work days in court as a result of being picked up for an outstanding fine.
