TRUCKS INSPECTION * Australia: Vehicle maintenance issues
* Victoria - Smaller trucking companies on VICROADS radar
-- Companies with fleets of 15 to 25 vehicles are continually coming to VicRoads' attention during inspection campaigns... VicRoads is working harder to engage with small trucking firms on vehicle maintenance issues, as an increasing number of them are popping up on its radar during inspections... The department has a policy of forewarning companies about inspections and it is now intending to step up its activities... VicRoads director of regulatory services Eric Henderson says the department issues letters to owner-operators when it identifies potential maintenance issues, and gives them a period of time to present their trucks for inspection... The move is aimed at giving owners the chance to repair their trucks to a timeline, improve maintenance standards, and avoid penalties for defects...
