How the Direct Vision Standard (DVS) Impacts Lorry Transport in London
Operating lorries in London has changed significantly since the introduction of the Direct Vision Standard (DVS). At London Lorry Courier, we understand how important it is for businesses to book DVS-compliant vehicles to avoid fines, delays and safety issues. That’s why all our London Lorry Transport services meet these requirements.
What is the Direct Vision Standard?
The DVS is a safety standard introduced by Transport for London. It measures how much a driver can see directly from the cab without relying solely on mirrors or cameras. Vehicles over 12 tonnes entering Greater London must have a minimum star rating or be fitted with additional safety equipment known as the “Safe System”.
Why DVS Matters for Businesses
