Safe driving tips for HGV drivers

  • You must comply with the prescribed rest periods.
  • Observe the lorry overtaking ban.
  • Find out about lorry driving bans.
  • Make sure you are well equipped in the winter.
  • As a rule, the stopping distance of a lorry is 30 percent longer than for a car. It is therefore particularly important to observe the safety distance to the vehicle in front, which should never be less than 50 metres.
Parking information system
Where can I take my breaks? Which car park is nearby? Where are there free parking spaces? The lorry parking information system helps (professional) drivers find a free parking space. Around the cities of Vienna and Linz, there is an information system in place that provides live information on the occupancy rate of the car parks.
