Re: Could maybe someone explain what went wrong there? As I am a bit confused reading this report.

Hi, it looks like a breach of the 10 hour night rule. Unless a the driver ops out or a collective agreement is signed then it must be 10 hours or below.

Vehicle does not have sensors or cameras, how does that work?

Good morning.
Back to DVS again. Just put an application for permit on tfl and got 3 stars. Vehicle does not have sensors or cameras, how does that work?
Is it expected these are fitted or do they not have to be fitted, as a permit has been issued?
