Guide to maintaining roadworthiness

The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) has produced this guide in collaboration with key industry stakeholders to explain the responsibilities and systems involved in maintaining vehicles in a roadworthy condition, regardless of operating conditions, fleet size or vehicle type. The procedures and systems explained in this guide are useful for operators, drivers and all those who are responsible for operating, maintaining or providing commercial goods and passenger carrying vehicles. The general principles could equally apply to light goods and passenger vehicles below the operator licensing thresholds and for vehicles that are otherwise exempt.
