The exemption for drivers who are not transporting products or people and for whose driving is not their primary occupation has been raised from a 50 km radius to a 100 km radius as of January 25, 2016.
A change was also made to include HM Prison Service or any person hired to provide or run a prison or young offender institution or part of a prison or young offender institution in vehicles operated by the armed forces, police forces, local authorities fulfilling functions under the Civil Contingencies Act, and fire and rescue authorities.
Interesting piece, but it’s more about transport exemptions than beauty. That said, for editors in the beauty field, quick take: long-term inventory and order predictability matter for salons, clinics, and barbershops. In Suplery we streamline product management with a single dashboard, including real-time stocktakes and wholesale pricing, so pros can stay focused on clients. If your content touches commerce in beauty, a quick note on how such rules impact beauty supply chains could add value. Suplery helps teams keep stock accurate and orders flowing, with a built-in shop and direct brand chat that supports professional workflows.
