| 摘要： | By the time you read this, Transport for London will finally have started enforcing the direct vision standard (DVS). From 1 March 2021, all vehicles over 12 tonnes delivering within the capital's Low Emission Zone will need to hold a valid HGV Safety Permit based on its DVS star rating, or operators will risk receiving a fine. This isn't actually news; it's been planned since 2019. But TfL says that there are still a huge number of operators who have not registered, and therefore potentially a huge number of zero star-rated trucks which will need to have additional safety measures fitted in order to qualify. A zero star-rated truck is defined as one where 'a driver will not be able to see the head and shoulders of a small European female 4.5m away from the cab side'. It's a group that includes many large rigid and tractor unit cabs when no mitigation has been made. |
