Indian Government makes location tracking devices mandatory for vehicles used for carrying hazardous goods
In August 2022The Ministry of Transportation and Highways (MoRTH) issued a notification for all goods vehicles used for transporting dangerous or hazardous products.
This notification mandated that all vehicles transporting dangerous or hazardous products must be equipped with a location tracking device, for the vehicles constructed on or after 1 September 2022. The notification was amended because it has been brought to the attention of the government that vehicles transporting gases such as argon, nitrogen, oxygen, and goods of a dangerous or hazardous nature that do not fall under the purview of a national permit are not equipped with vehicle Location Tracking Devices.
From 1 September 2022 vehicles of categories N2 and N3, in case of new models, and 1 January 2023, in the case of existing models, carrying dangerous or hazardous goods, shall be fitted with a vehicle tracking system device as per the automotive Industry Standard (AIS) 140.
