Statute overview

About this statute

This regulation updates smart tachograph requirements, including GNSS-based border-crossing and load/unload recording, ITS interface functions, and digital map handling. Transport undertakings must download tachograph data within set periods and keep it for at least 12 months; the recording equipment must support an ITS interface with driver-consent rules for personal data. This segment updates technical tachograph specifications, including Generation 2 version 2 data elements, download formats, and card/file structures. This provision sets technical rules for tachograph GNSS data handling, time adjustment, and OSNMA testing, including recurring VU requests, status reporting, and receiver performance requirements. This provision requires the tachograph system and GNSS components to support specified secure messaging, data transmission, event recording, and timing rules.
