Keep Your Fleet Compliant with the New Direct Vision Standard (DVS)

From October 2024, every HGV over 12 tonnes entering Greater London must meet a minimum 3-star rating or be fitted with a Progressive Safe System. Non-compliance could mean fines of up to £550 per day, but staying ahead doesn’t have to be complicated or costly.


This guide gives fleet managers everything they need to understand the upcoming DVS changes and take action before the deadline.
