Are You Ready for the 2025 DVS Crackdown? Don’t Risk £550 Fines or Having Your Fleet Grounded

If your HGVs over 12 tonnes enter Greater London even once a month, the rules changed forever on 28 October 2024, and full enforcement has been live since May 2025.

Transport for London is no longer issuing warnings. As of today, non-compliant vehicles are being stopped, fined £550 (discounted to £300 if paid within 14 days), and in repeated cases, prohibited from driving further.

One of our customers received three PCNs in a single week in November, totalling £1,650, simply because their old 2021 “Safe System” no longer meets the new Progressive Safe System (PSS) standard.

What actually changed in 2024/2025?

0-star and most 1–2-star lorries now need the full Progressive Safe System
Basic camera-and-sensor kits from 2021 are no longer enough
TfL now demands AI-enhanced detection for pedestrians and cyclists (MOIS + BSIS)
From 2030, 1- and 2-star vehicles will face the same tough rules as 0-star today

In short: if your truck isn’t rated 3-star or above, it needs a 2025-spec PSS kit fitted and an up-to-date HGV Safety Permit. No exceptions.

The good news?

Getting compliant doesn’t have to be painful or expensive.

At DVS 2025 we’ve already fitted over 1,400 vehicles this year with TfL-approved Progressive Safe Systems, many in under 4 hours with zero downtime.

You have three fully compliant options (all independently tested and accepted by TfL):

AI Camera PSS – Three 1080p AI cameras + audible alerts – perfect if you want to see everything
AI Camera + Radar PSS – Adds 77 GHz radar for rock-solid side detection
AI Sensor + Radar PSS – No cameras, just precise alerts – our most popular “set and forget” system

Every system comes with:

Same-day or next-day mobile installation anywhere in the UK
All required stickers and paperwork for your permit application
Free remote commissioning and permit support
36-month warranty and lifetime UK telephone support

Don’t leave it until January

TfL data shows detection rates have tripled since the summer. The cameras are on, the enforcement teams are out 24/7, and the fines are real.

One phone call today can protect your fleet for the next five years.
