Re: Maintenance Schedule, Safety System

The DfT/DVLA/Traffic Commissioners have just issued new guidelines for the safe operation and maintenance of buses, coaches and lorries.

It's a hefty 112 pages, but it contains everything you ought to know. A new item to the driver's daily walk-round check is the addition to check the vehicle height is present in the vehicle and that the driver is aware of the height.

My bus number (if any): RML2532
