Commercial vehicles in India are set to get much safer than they are today. From October 1st, 2015, all commercial vehicles will have to be equipped with ABS and a speed limiter. ABS will only be made compulsory on vehicles that weigh 12 tons or more and will include multi axle and tractor-trailer type vehicles across the country.
The speed limit for vehicles will be limited to 80 kmph for all large commercial vehicles. Manufacturers like Tata motors already implement the speed limiter on most of their cars although it is not across their range. The new rulings will enforce the speed limited across most of its large vehicle range including the Tata 407 truck.
The new rulings will effectively be imposed on the 1st of October but only applicable on vehicles made after that day. This means that all vehicles made before that date and in stock at various stockyards across the country can still be sold and registered even after the aforementioned date. Certain sections of the country will also impose a BS4 emissions norm on smaller commercial vehicles across the country on the aforementioned date. These areas will mainly include north Indian regions in and around the NCR area and other major metros in India.
