Roadpol Operation Truck & Bus is a coordinated pan-European enforcement action by Traffic Police Officers from each Roadpol member country and takes place on Europe’s roads four times each year.
Commercial busses and heavy goods vehicles are stopped and checked at the roadside by traffic police officers together with other relevant enforcement agencies.
During the campaign officers check the following conditions:
- road safety checks such as the technical condition,
- dimensions and weight of the vehicles,
- whether the drivers are authorized and adhere to European driving times,
- the tachograph,
- and cargo and accompanying documents.
