Background Statistics Regarding Light Vehicle Inspection
In the UK, commercial vehicles account for only 1.7% of all vehicles but involve nearly 1 in 5 i.e., 18% road accidents.Every year, around 70 people are killed, and approximately 2000 gets injured in accidents that involve vehicles in and around workplaces. The causes behind a significant number of these accidents are as follows:
- Vehicle turning over
- People falling from overloaded vehicles
- People hit by loads or objects falling from vehicles
To minimise the road risks and death cases, any type of occupational vehicle can be stopped by the police officer or a DVSA inspector to perform a vehicle inspection.If the inspection shows that an organisation’s vehicle is unsafe, both (the driver and the organisation) will need to face prohibition, fines, or even prosecutions.
Under the Road Traffic Act 1991, the driver must ensure that the vehicle being used is:
- Roadworthy and in good condition
- Loads are restrained, securely
- Kept within its intended limits, and not overloaded
There are defined legal prosecutions and penalties, if the inspection results in any risk to human life.
This light vehicle inspection training helps drivers to undertake daily vehicle inspection to save organisation from legal prosecutions and minimising a risk of injury to any human life.
