If my card expired,but i was working for a small haulier,that has only got a couple of motors, “pre digi card 2006” would i need to renew it? as the haulier has said that he wouldnt hire a motor in if one was being repaired,so hes not thinking of renewing the fleet in the foreseeable future

or do you have to still have a valid card,even if your never going to drive one in the forseeable future

If your card is expired you do not need to renew it or carry it, if it is still valid, you must carry it even if driving an analogue equipped vehicle.

i was just wondering,as iv’e haerd that,it’s coming into force that you must carry one,even if you do not drive digi card vehicles,as long as you have an hgv licence
