In October 2024, the Direct Vision Standard (DVS), the license to drive an HGV into Greater London,will change significantly. One of the key changes for vehicles weighing more than 12 tones, whether from the UK or entering London from overseas, is the minimum star requirement, which will be increased from one to three stars. This adjustment means a greater emphasis on safety, especially for vehicles that do not meet the star rating. In order to be licensed, these vehicles will now need to be equipped with additional safety equipment. .
