The future is digital...
Digital Tachographs are being fitted to all new vehicles. These new tachographs require smart-cards, which drivers and companies should be applying for now!
It is important that all staff are aware of the new technology. It is not just drivers who will have to use them, but fleet managers, fitters and anyone working in the transport office will need to know how the new tachograph works, how to store the information, and how to record information if the smart-card is lost or the tachograph breaks down.
Novadata is one of the few companies who have tutors qualified to City & Guilds standard to train transport personnel in the use and management of the digital tachograph.
The introduction of these systems and the associated smart-cards are complex with new rules and penalties. They are far more than simply digital replacements for the existing tachographs. The EU has viewed the change over as an opportunity to expand the way tachographs are used and tightened the legislation that governs them.
Companies will need to be familiar with both traditional analogue and digital systems and how to integrate them to avoid falling foul of the new regulations. Drivers must be able to operate both types of tachograph as new vehicles come into use, and understand how to integrate the records from both.
Company in-house trainer? Fleet manager? Owner driver?
