After monitoring the
condition and roadworthiness of short term rental vehicles
over the last 6 months TMVM has uncovered some concerning
facts with as many as 35% being illegal, unroadworthy or in
breach of Duty of care requirements. This comes at a time when
many fleets are using significantly higher numbers of rental
vehicles than normal due to the uncertainty over economic
growth.
Simon Hill, Total
Motion Managing Director has warned fleet using short term
rental vehicles to be mindful of the condition of the vehicles
and to make sure that where rentals last for more than a month
regular checks on the vehicles are carried out by drivers.
