Introduction

The NZ Transport Agency is consulting on mandating advanced safety systems for light and heavy vehicles entering the fleet (i.e. new and used imports). Many of these features are commonly fitted to new heavy vehicles because they are standard fitment in most of our source markets. Because of this, NZTA estimates it will not impose additional costs on the transport sector, but it will improve road safety.

To help inform Transporting New Zealand’s submission to NZTA, we would appreciate you answering a few short questions on the percentage of your late-model fleet fitted with this technology, and your view on mandating them (phased in from October 2026-July 2028 for new heavy vehicles to give enough lead time, and from July 2029 for used import heavies).

The information you provide will treated in confidence and aggregated to assist with our submission.

The survey should take about 5 minutes. We’d appreciate you completing it by Friday 21 November, thankyou.
