Road Transport Working Time Directive

VOSA have stated that they are now actively enforcing compliance to the Road Transport Working Time Directive.

Letters have been sent out to operators around the country that state VOSA is now enforcing these regulations in their normal enforcement activities. They also state that operators may be visited by a Traffic Examiner in the near future to discuss their organisation's systems and working practices.

The OLMC states 'this comes as no surprise, the Road Transport Working Time Directive has been "in play" for some time now but VOSA hasn't been enforcing compliance as they could have. This announcement is a clear call to action to pre-warn operators that if they don't put systems in place that ensure compliance with the regulations, they can expect a rough ride when it comes to future VOSA inspections.'
