DRIVER CPC
The RHA have warned that companies are not to leave driver CPC training to the last minute, with a year remaining of the current cycle.
HGV drivers are legally required to complete the 35 hours of training over a five year period to remain legally compliant.
Although all new HGV drivers have taken the drivers CPC as part of gaining there license. This has been in place since 10th September 2009.
The deadline for the next 5 year period is now less than a year away, any driver who does not participate in the required training will forfeit their Driver Qualification Card (DQC) and the right to drive for a living.
Fines of up £1000 can be issued for anyone who attempts to drive without a DQC.
