to your use and after you use the vehicle. Especially when
you hire a vehicle to lock out your data to other users.

What happens if I do not lock out the vehicle to my company R.
You will not be able to download data from the digital

onto the vehicle when you take possession of it, including hire
vehicles and you must lock the tachograph out when you finish
with the vehicle. Q.
Can I use the vehicle if I do not have a driver card. R.
Only if you have used a card in the past. You cannot
use new vehicles unless you have registered your drivers card on
a previous occasion. Then you can use the tachograph and
produce printouts at the end of your duty. |
