The 36th edition of this bestseller for busy fleet operators is the definitive guide for anyone in the road transport industry. It presents all the legal requirements in a coherent format, as well as offering operational advice and solutions to some of the problems facing the industry. New to this edition is the examination of the new Road Transport Directive which inhibits the working hours for LGV drivers and the launch of the new driver smart card. Further legal updates include the EU Driver Training Directive and the new Road Safety Bill which will introduce tougher penalities and new powers to seize and dispose of uninsured vehicles.
