Government To Make Two Drivers Compulsory For Commercial Vehicles

Government of India in order to improve the road safety is attempting to make a law to have two drivers compulsory for commercial vehicles. The aim behind the law is to enable a driver to have better rest on long & tiring journeys as well as enhancing the road safety by avoiding accidents caused by lack of sleep of commercial vehicle drivers.

The government in addition is also planning to ease the process of obtaining driving license for commercial vehicles by reducing the minimum education qualification. The central government is attempting to amend The Central Motor Vehicles Rules 1989 to legally bring about this change.

As the notice came out it was supported by some Value people like the director of the National Transportation Planning and Research Center (Natpac), B.G. Sreedevi, who welcomed this new initiative, said “We have come across several cases where the teenagers who do not even have driving license in driver’s cabin of these vehicles. The drivers in these vehicles that ferry goods inter-State are often found on the wheels for 18 hours at a stretch and this is a major concern,”

However to give you a sight of the other side the motoring authority will now have to put a strict check on the moving of these vehicles to make sure two drivers are present in the vehicle.

The additional burden to employ an extra driver to comply with the rule will definitely put an impact on the freight rates. This will definitely increase the jobs for drivers however the support people will now have to lose their job as the owners will prefer the extra driver to do the cleaning & food preparing jobs.

With these new rules targeting at road safety we hope to have a pleasant road experience even on long trips. If you are looking ahead to purchase used commercial vehicles than paying a visit to Shriram Automall will certainly result positive as the company offers a wide array of pre-owned vehicles under a single roof.
