Will motorhomes soon require a tachograph?

The European Commission has clarified that EU member states can exempt privately used motorhomes and motorhome-trailer combinations over 7.5 tonnes from mandatory tachograph rules. This follows a proposal that would have affected vehicles towing a trailer or with a special loading device, impacting approximately 4,700 vehicles in Germany. The decision aims to reduce costs and legal uncertainty for private users, with industry associations calling for swift national implementation.
