TRUCKERS' HOS * Australia - Fatigue management transition for South Australia
South Australia is following implementing a transition period to new fatigue management regulations as well as relaxing its enforcement strategyAdelaide,South Australia -ATN - 30 July 2008: -- ... Although the laws will be introduced on September 29, operators will have a six-month exemption from changed driving hours. This means drivers using standard hours will still be allowed to drive for 12 hours and work for two hours. Under the new regulations, drivers are limited to a 12-hour workday... The Rann Government is also extending the Transitional Fatigue Management Scheme (TFMS) from six to 12 months. Those resigtered under the TFMS are allowed to drive for longer hours... The South Australian Road Transport Association (SARTA), which campaigned hard for the transition periods, says the Government’s decision will give operators more time to adjust to the new regulations... The association says operators will also have more time to determine whether they will need to become accredited in Basic Fatigue Management (BFM) or the Advanced Fatigue Management (AFM) module.
