Huge rule change affecting 250,000 drivers will hit in days – everything you need to know to avoid fine

A HUGE rule change affecting more than 250,000 drivers will hit in days.

From October 28, HGV drivers in London will need to follow a range of new safety rules to avoid big fines.

HGVs will now be given a Direct Vision Standard score based on how well the driver can see from their cab without mirrors or cameras.

The DVS measures the exact volume of space an HGV driver can see directly through their cab windscreen.
