Will You Be Able to Meet the New DVSA Roadworthiness Standards in 2025?

Now is the time to consider in-house brake testing to ensure compliance with the latest safety inspection requirements. Additionally, the new guidelines for PSV vehicles include assessing brake lock-up based on design or gross weight, depending on the vehicle’s age. Accurate, compliant service records and pre-test results help reduce the risk of costly failures, retest rates, and losses associated with vehicles being unavailable for longer than expected. Our modern brake testing equipment delivers the same results as DVSA ATF facilities, reducing uncertainties when preparing vehicles for testing.

Recent changes mean your current equipment may not be able to cope with the updated guidelines and increased use. Since 2023, brake performance monitoring should primarily be tested using either a Roller Brake Tester (RBT) or an Electronic Brake Performance Monitoring System (EBPMS). With new regulations increasing laden brake tests to at least four times a year, many fleet operators are facing challenges. Access to brake testing equipment or facilities is limited in some areas, and additional staff may be required for loading and unloading, adding time and costs.

Muller Automotive UK offer a proven, reliable solution to meet the new 2025 braking performance assessment requirements for HGVs, Trailers, and PSVs, plus an option to test Class 4, 5, or 7 vehicles. Our ATF-approved RBT tests each wheel, using rollers to simulate braking, to DSVA standards. This adaptable RBT can replace some older installations, reducing the need for extensive groundwork. We have experienced specialists across the UK to guide you through the process from start to finish, so call us today to discover how you can benefit from a CV brake tester from Muller Automotive.
