DVS Zone: Check Where the Direct Vision Standard Applies
Where does the DVS zone apply?
The Direct Vision Standard (DVS) operates across Greater London and applies to HGVs over 12 tonnes entering or operating within the enforcement area.
Before travelling, fleet operators should check whether their route enters the DVS zone and ensure affected vehicles hold the appropriate HGV Safety Permit and meet the current safety requirements.

Travelling within the DVS zone?
