Smartboard for trucks

Requirements breached

Truck's SmartBoard was marked with a wrong approval number which is likely to result in confusion with a visually similar product that is battery-operated and could constitute a fire hazard if dangerous goods are transported. Deploying a battery-powered model on a trailer containing dangerous goods would mean that a fire could not be ruled out, even after parking the vehicle. The product does not comply with the Regulation No 10 of the Economic Commission for Europe of the United Nations (UN/ECE) - Uniform provisions concerning the approval of vehicles with regard to electromagnetic compatibility.
