Subject: Derogation from base vehicle construction requirements, regarding vehicles intended for the local transport of dangerous goods first registered before 31 December 2001. Reference to Annex I, Section I.1, to this Directive: ADR 2001: 9.2, 9.2.3.2, 9.2.3.3. Content of the Annex to the Directive: Requirements concerning the construction of Base Vehicles. Content of the national legislation: The derogation applies to vehicles intended for the local transport of dangerous goods (categories UN 1202, 1268, 1223, 1863, 2614, 1212, 1203, 1170, 1090, 1193, 1245, 1294, 1208, 1230, 3262 and 3257) which were first registered before 31 December 2001. The above mentioned vehicles must comply with the requirements of 9 (9.2.1 to 9.2.6) of Annex B to the Directive 94/55/EC with the following exceptions. Compliance with the requirements of 9.2.3.2 is necessary only if the vehicle has been equipped with an anti-lock braking system by the manufacturer; it must be fitted with an endurance braking system as defined in 9.2.3.3.1, but not necessarily complying with 9.2.3.3.2 and 9.2.3.3.3. The electrical supply to the tachograph must be provided via a safety barrier connected directly to the battery (marginal 220514) and the electrical equipment of the mechanism for lifting a bogie axle must be installed where it was originally installed by the vehicle manufacturer and must be protected in an appropriate sealed housing (marginal 220517). Specifically, tank-vehicles with a maximum mass of less than 4 tonnes intended for local transport of diesel-heating oil (UN: 1202) must comply with the requirements of 9.2.2.3, 9.2.2.6, 9.2.4.3 and 9.2.4.5 but not necessarily with the other ones. Initial reference to the national legislation: Τεχνικές Προδιαγραφές ήδη κυκλοφορούντων οχημάτων που διενεργούν εθνικές μεταφορές ορισμένων κατηγοριών επικινδύνων εμπορευμάτων (Technical requirements of vehicles already in use, intended for local transport of certain dangerous goods categories). Comments: The number of the above mentioned vehicles is small when compared with the total number of vehicles already registered and in addition they are intended for local transport only. The form of the derogation requested, the size of the vehicle fleet in question and the type of goods transported do not create a road safety problem. Expiry date: 30 June 2015.
