With more than 4 million vans registered in the UK, it is a common misconception that there is no legislation governing van drivers and van operations.

Due to their size and weight, vans can be driven and used for anything – right?

Wrong, in fact very wrong. With an increase of roadside stops for vans and the average fine per offence in the region of £972, it doesn’t take long for van drivers and owners to figure out that vans which don’t comply with the rules, regulations standards and procedures can be a costly experience in fines, let alone additional costs for recovery and repair.

CLOCS (Construction Logistics and Community Safety) is delighted to be a Partner of Driving for Better Business and work alongside them in raising standards across all areas of the construction logistics industry with the aim of providing safer, leaner and cleaner construction vehicle journeys. We share a vision of zero risk to vulnerable road users, improved air quality and reduced congestion on our roads, and will work with DfBB to identify and share best practice, develop practical resources, and educate and inform all stakeholders to ensure the safest construction vehicle journeys.

The Van Driver Toolkit

Working with the National Highways Commercial Vehicle Incident Prevention Team, we have produced a series of driver information online modules to assist van drivers and fleet operators in dispelling uncertainty and myth. You can share the whole toolkit with your drivers, or you may prefer to share individual modules whenever you want to check understanding of best practice, or reinforce your driving for work policies.

The toolkit will help you implement best practice for what is required to reduce costs, improve operating conditions and ensure safe and legal vehicles and wellbeing for your drivers.
