In this article we will explain what equipment is mandatory, why they are important and how a professional firm ensures, such as DOOR SPEED TRUCKcompliance with these norms.
Warning panels
📌 Every vehicle used in heavy goods transport shall be equipped with warning signs:
- fitted on the cab and at the rear of the vehicle or cargo,
- Inscribed with”EXCEPTIONAL TRANSPORT“sheep”ATTENTION! EXCEEDED GAUGE!“,
- visible and readable from a distance.
➡️ Their role is to alert other traffic participants to the presence of a transport with dimensions or weight above normal.
Light warning devices
Another essential element are yellow flashing lights.
Main rules:
- there must be two devices mounted on the vehicle cab,
- the light must be visible from at least Men's 100 m, both front and rear, and from the side,
- if the load is high and blocks the visibility of the lights, mount additional devices in the rear of the vehicle or cargo.
➡️ These lights must be maintained constantly in operationall the time the vehicle is on the road.
Additional signaling when stationary
A congested transport cannot rely solely on standard signalling.
👉 In case of Accidental stalling on the roadway, the legislation provides that the vehicle must also be equipped with additional means of road signallingso that other participants can quickly avoid the dangerous area.
Examples: reflective triangles, luminous beacons, warning cones.
Why is this equipment mandatory?
- Road safety— bulky vehicles are slow, take up more space and have a reduced angle of view.
- Accident prevention— visual warning reduces the risk of collision.
- Compliance with legislation— the lack of such equipment entails fines and immobilization of transport.
- Carrier's responsibility— only serious companies invest in equipment and follow the rules.
