What is the NEW Progressive Safe System from October 2024?

THE NEW DVS SAFETY SYSTEM


Fleets will need to upgrade from the present Safe System when TfL releases its Direct Vision Standard Phase 2 regulations in October 2024.

Phase 2 of the Direct Vision Standard, which TfL unveiled in October 2023, is a new DVS law that modifies the requirements for safe systems in vehicles as well as the standard for qualifying vehicles. A DVS kit is required by law for heavy-duty vehicles (HGVs) weighing more than 12 tonnes and having a DVS star rating of 0 or lower. But starting with Phase 2 of the Direct Vision Standard, the bar for HGVs needing a safe system will rise to three stars. 

Starting in October 2024, all cars with a DVS star rating of two stars or lower must be equipped with the new DVS Progressive Safe System.

In order for TfL to achieve its goal of having no road fatalities or serious injuries on London's streets by 2041, the Progressive Safe System—which will provide a safer, more intelligent means of ensuring the safety of HGVs and other road users moving in Greater London—must be implemented.

 

DO I NEED A PROGRESSIVE SAFE SYSTEM?


The requirements for vehicles needing a safe system will change under Direct Vision Standard Phase 2.


The minimum star rating for vehicles needing a DVS Safe System will rise as of October 28, 2024. Currently only vehicles with a rating of 0 stars are required by law to have a DVS kit. However, under DVS Phase 2, a new DVS Progressive Safe System must be installed in all vehicles with ratings of 0, 1, or 2 stars under the DVS star rating system.

Certain operators will also need to apply for new DVS safety permits as part of DVS Phase 2.

Being the top providers of DVS kits we can ensure a smooth transition on time for your fleet into phase 2. Speak to our team for more information.

 

Why should I buy a DVS kit?


Adding DVS kits to your fleet can help you avoid a fine in addition to increasing safety.

HGVs with a DVS star rating of one or less must have DVS Safe System kits, and starting in October 2024, 1 and 2-star vehicles must also have them. If an eligible HGV passes through Greater London without a DVS kit installed, they risk daily fines of up to £550.

Our DVS kits not only help HGV fleets comply with TfL's Direct Vision Standard, but they also improve fleet safety in several other ways. The kits' radars and side detection systems serve to cover drivers' blind areas, which helps prevent accidents. Improving overall safety for both drivers and pedestrians.

 

LOWER FLEET COSTS

Installing DVS kits can lower your fleet's operational expenses.

DVS kits can help Fleet Operators in cutting costs associated with their fleet in addition to helping fleets adhere to the Direct Vision Standard and enhance road safety. The safety elements of the Safe System contribute to a decrease in traffic accidents, which in turn lowers the need for expensive maintenance and repairs.

DVS kits also assist in emphasising your fleet's devotion to safety, which, if acknowledged by insurance companies, may aid in lowering your fleet's insurance costs. In the case of an incident, the DVS Safe System's camera monitoring system, when used in conjunction with a DVR, also offers clear video proof, which speeds up insurance claims processing.
