The Direct Vision Standard (DVS) for HGV’s has been created to improve the safety of all road users, particularly pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists.

A hefty fine will be given to both the operator and the driver if your vehicle enters greater London without a DVS safety permit after the 1st of March 2021 (it has been delayed due to the COVID-19 outbreak this year).

Parksafe have a comprehensive range of Direct Vision Standard equipment that complies with DVS legislation and available from stock.

1. A fully operational blind spot camera monitoring system with an in cab monitor.
2. A side detection sensor system with driver alerts to be fitted to the near side of the vehicle.
3. An audible *left-turn alarm to be fitted to the vehicle to warn road users when the vehicle is manoeuvring left.
4. Side-underrun protection with class V and VI mirrors.
5. External pictorial stickers and markings shall be displayed on the vehicles to warn road users of hazards around the vehicle.

*All European left-hand side drivers will require the equivalent for the right-hand side blind spot.
