Roadside inspections

Monday 9 September 2013
Over the coming months, Stichting Incident Management Nederland will be carrying out inspections among IM recovery companies. All IM recovery companies can expect to receive callouts, but upon arriving at the incident instead of a broken-down vehicle they will be met by an inspector from ViaNorm, who will offer proof of his identity.

During the inspection, the recovery operator will be asked to demonstrate that the recovery vehicle that has been sent out and the driver comply with the Quality Requirements of Stichting Incident Management Nederland. The inspector will also check whether the driver is wearing the safety clothing laid down for recovery work. If necessary, following completion of the inspection, the inspector will return with the recovery driver to his office, to examine any missing documentation.



Stichting Incident Management Nederland would like to take this opportunity to call upon all IM recovery companies to cooperate with the inspections. Inspection callouts can be claimed via the National Central Reporting Point of Stichting Incident Management Nederland as a wasted callout.
