Bringing his wealth of experience in all areas of fleet management he offers a bespoke service through his company Fleet Risk Consultants, providing you with a cost effective fleet that complies fully with your 'duty of care' requirements.Why a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing.
I get rather worried that there are people running vehicles as part of their business who think they know the rules that apply, but are only aware of some of them.
If you only know part of the rules you will quite obviously only get part of the solution in place.
A typical example of this is the no smoking regulations. Most businesses are now aware that they need to make the vehicles no-smoking zones and that the vehicles also need no-smoking stickers in them.
The part businesses get wrong is the size of the stickers required as they are different in four sections of the United Kingdom. The legislation was set in such a way that the sticker in Scotland needs to have more information on it and the sticker in Wales is bigger than the one in England and the Northern Ireland Sticker is the same as the Welsh sticker. Getting it wrong could cost you up to £2,500.00 per vehicle.
