Operator rating system

Work is underway to develop an operator rating system - a system that will rate commercial road transport operators based on their performance against transport standards and regulations.

The proposed system will enable Land Transport NZ to use information that is already collected, like Certificate of Fitness inspection data, roadside vehicle inspections and operator reviews, to produce a rating for each commercial road transport operator in New Zealand.

Questions and answers

• Questions and answers about the operator rating system.
• Questions and answers about the Roadside Inspection Database (RID).

Consultation on the Operator Safety Rating Rule
The first step in the development of the system is the Operator Safety Rating Rule, which provides the legal basis for the creation and use of the system. The consultation period for this Rule has closed. Information on the Operator Safety Rating Rule is still available via the closed consultation section of the website.

On the road: September 2007
During September, Land Transport NZ held a series of free presentations around the country to provide TSL holders with information on how ratings will be calculated.
