Failure to address vehicle defects can lead to serious consequences for operators, explains the company. Fines under the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator can be substantial for each violation. Beyond financial penalties, non-compliance may trigger full fleet audits and can lead to higher insurance premiums.

A national legal framework governs these road safety penalties. The Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) is the primary legislation for these standards.

Therefore, regular and well-documented vehicle servicing is a key part of demonstrating legal adherence. Authorities use specific tools to enforce these rules during inspections.

This document specifies the corrective actions an operator must take. Depending on the severity, a notice can restrict or prohibit a vehicle's use until the issue is fixed, and failure to comply with a defect notice can result in even further penalties, compounding the financial implications for fleet operators.

Transport for NSW uses a risk-based inspection strategy to direct its resources which impacts heavy vehicles likelihood of being selected.

To avoid being targeted, there is a real need for consistent, preventative servicing to avoid attracting attention.
