• This is a guide only to assist dealers and customers to select the most suitable truck. The new finished vehicle must be checked for compliance before going on the road either at a testing station or by a LTSA approved engineer.
• Trucks with a GVW over 12000 kg have to comply to an SRT of 0.35g. Tractors do not have to comply.
• Compliance date is from 1st Jan 2003 but due to delays in having approved engineers and obtaining suspension data, the LTSA have accepted that it may take until mid 2004 to assess all the existing fleet. Operators should check their trucks as soon as possible, especially stock and logging trucks.
• Although trucks don’t have to be certified , it is the operators responsibility to make sure he knows what his loading limitations are for each truck.
