Every LGV Driver will need to have a digital tachograph card if they want to continue driving LGV's.

I've had mine since they started and much prefer it to the wax tacho cards. They are very easy to use, once you've had a play and found out what all the buttons do..

Here is some info on the cards.

If your fleet is still fitted with the old analogue tachos then you will be okay but if some have analogue and some are digital then you are going to inevitably need the digicard as you will not be able to drive them,as aboveas they have pointed out these sites will shed more light on the matter.

I have to admit i prefer the digicard now to the older charts as you dont have to fill out anything basically on them as it is all done for you unlike the charts that you have to manually fill out the centre fields etc.
Best regards,Clive.

Not strictly true, there are exemptions to tacho requirement. :wink:
