Abstract

This paper demonstrates that the traditional methods of ensuring heavy vehicles comply with their operating conditions will not keep pace with the increasingly complex road transport task. This realisation is motivating transport agencies to look at applying electronic compliance monitoring systems to the heavy vehicle fleet. The four elements of an electronic compliance monitoring system are outlined: 1. Equipment on the vehicle; 2. Equipment on the roadside; 3. The data centre; and 4. Enabling legislation. Further, this paper asserts that the whole electronic compliance monitoring system needs to work towards ensuring its own internal integrity and the supply of irrefutable evidence of noncompliant behaviour. Finally, it is pointed out that the building blocks for each element of an interoperable electronic compliance monitoring system either exist or soon will.
