In it's inception DVS 2024 was to be enforced from 28th October 2024, with a grace period to allow operators time to fit a PSS until January 2025.
This grace period was to be made available to operators - ON APPLICATION - and was not automatic. Applications for the grace period required operators to make a specific application via their London Road User Charging account supplying:
Evidence that you have installation works arranged to fit the Progressive Safe System but that this is scheduled for after 28 October 2024
Seperate applications will need to be made for EACH VEHICLE operators wish to receive a grace period for.
As of July 2024 the length of this grace period has been extended to 4th May 2025. An extension of the grace period by 3 months. The same conditions regarding APPLICATION for this extension apply.
