Operator Licence
An Operator Licence (O-licence) is the legal authority required to operate goods vehicles over 3.5 tonnes or passenger vehicles carrying more than 9 people in the UK. Licence holders must demonstrate adequate tyre maintenance systems, including inspection schedules and defect reporting procedures. Tyre condition failures can result in action against the operator's licence.
