The number of fines being incurred by fleet drivers has increased significantly, according to research by Jaama.

A survey by the fleet safety company of its top 20 customers found that the number of driver fines rose during the 12 months between 23/24 and 24/25 from 844,971 fines to 1,080,556 – a 27.8% increase.

Jaama said that the rise in fines meant many fleet operators were having to employ additional staff to process them.

Jaama chief product officer Mark Francis said: “More cameras are being installed than ever before as many local authorities move towards a Low Emission Zone environment in their towns and cities. 

“Meanwhile, more smart motorways are being adopted so the number of opportunities for drivers to land speeding fines is growing.

“And that’s before you take into account parking fines which last year reached a record 14.5 million parking charge notices according to research by the RAC.”

In response to the increase in fines, Jaama is said to have accelerated development on a new fine management module for its Key2 platform, which it hopes to launch in early 2026.

Francis said: “Our aim is to help fleets divert people from processing fines into roles that add more value to our clients’ businesses.”
