TIP has taken a proactive approach to upcoming changes to guidelines regarding heavy goods vehicle and semi-trailer braking system assessment by equipping 20,000 trailers with its Electronic Braking Performance Monitoring System (EBPMS), BrakePlus.
The company is ensuring all of its trailers on long-term hire are fitted with an EBPMS.
The initiative will ensure the trailers are ‘compliant’ with the new guidelines set out in the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) publication, a ‘Guide to maintaining roadworthiness’, which come into effect in April.
