Everything you need to know about DVS
Add cameras to your HGVs and be compliant for London’s Direct Vision Standard (DVS)
London is banning HGV blind spots.
London’s Direct Vision Standard explained
We supply and fit all the camera systems you need and we can advise on your options for a range of budgets. We have a huge variety of cameras and in-cab monitors to make sure your vehicles are not only DVS compliant but less likely to be involved in accidents.
These ‘Safe System’ upgrades will become even more demanding in 2024. Plan ahead and make the full upgrade in one go, to save money in the long run.
Once HGVs are ungraded as necessary, their owners must get a permit from the Transport for London (TFL) website.
How is this law going to be enforced?
- You will be given a permit reference number
- Your permit will be an electronic record
- HGV license plates will be checked by traffic cameras in Greater London
- Owners of HGVs without DVS permits will be fined £550
Why has the DVS been introduced?
- 26,000 people injured on London roads in 2018 (Source: Transport for London)
- 63% of cyclist deaths and 25% of pedestrian deaths in London involved HGVs
- The Vision Zero plan aims to bring road deaths and injuries in London down to zero by 2041.
The ultimate in asset protection with a 95% recovery success rate
