Traffic Fine Recovery Log Matched to Rental Dates

Traffic Fine Recovery Log is an offline app (one HTML file in a zip) for a company that rents out vehicles. You enter each rental with the plate and its dates, and each fine as it arrives with the plate and the date of the offence. The app shows how many rentals cover that plate on that date, lets you attach the fine to the right rental, and tracks what you billed, what you recovered and what is still open.

The problem it removes: Fines arrive weeks after the rental ends, with only a plate and a date. Someone has to work out who had the car, the answer sits in a chat, the deposit has already been returned, and a fine paid by the company is never recovered. This app finds the rental by plate and date, and keeps every fine on a list until it is recovered, disputed or written off.

What is inside:

• Rentals with plate, renter, phone, dates and the deposit held
• Fines with plate, date, time, place, reason, amount, date received and date the company paid
• A match count per fine: how many rentals cover that plate on that date, with the rental number suggested, and a rule that stops a fine being attached to a rental whose dates or plate do not fit
• An admin fee per fine as a setting, recoveries entered as the money comes in from the deposit, cash, card or transfer, and the amount still outstanding
• Statuses To match, Billed, Recovered, Disputed and Written off, with a dispute that needs a written reason
• Ageing of fines the company has paid and not recovered, a WhatsApp message for the renter, a printed recovery statement per rental and a fine notice
• Example data you can load in one click, a Start here guide and an Honest limits panel
• JSON backup and restore, CSV export, and CSV import with a check of every row before anything is added

Who it is for: small rental companies, leasing offices and fleet owners who receive traffic fines for plates they rent out, and want to know who had the car and how much has been recovered.

What it is NOT: It does not look up fines, connect to any traffic authority or payment system, or decide who is liable. The match is by plate and dates you entered, so a wrong date gives a wrong match. The fine notice wording is sample text you must check with your adviser. It is not legal advice. It is not legal, tax or accounting advice, it is not connected to any government system, bank or messaging service, and it does not file or send anything by itself. UAE e-invoicing is not part of it.

Verified by us: scripted tests in Chromium (131 checks through the real screens: adding, editing and deleting records in every table, required-field messages, backup then clear then restore, CSV export then import, keyboard order, print layouts rendered to PDF, no horizontal scrolling at 375 and 1280 pixels, no network requests) and an independent recalculation by a separately written Python evaluator of 1121 calculated values (25 randomised rows plus the example data) with 0 mismatches. Safari engine (WebKit): smoke test passed; Firefox: could not be launched. Not tested: Firefox beyond what is stated here, and no real printer was used (print layouts were checked as PDF).
