DVSA
The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) is the UK government agency responsible for setting and enforcing standards for vehicle safety, including tyre condition and compliance. DVSA inspectors carry out roadside checks on commercial vehicles and can issue immediate prohibitions for tyre defects. Tyre businesses must ensure all work meets DVSA standards, particularly for commercial fleet operations. TyreOps generates DVSA-compliant inspection reports automatically.
