Consultation outcome: Driver CPC: changes to the scope of exemptions

The Driving Standards Agency wants to know what you think about 2 proposals to widen the scope of Driver CPC exemptions.

These would:

• exempt vehicles attending a Vehicle and Operator Services Agency (VOSA) test centre (including VOSA authorised testing facilities)

• exempt drivers of a vehicle that’s being driven with the permission of the vehicle operator or lessor and where the following 4 extra conditions are also met:

  • within 50 kilometres of the driver’s base
  • no goods or passengers are carried
  • the vehicle is not being used for ‘hire or reward’
  • driving such vehicles is not the driver’s main activity
