April VIRM amendments delayed by COVID-19 now live

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 1 April VIRM 2020 amendment was largely delayed until such time that Alert Level restrictions were eased. Now that Alert Level restrictions have been eased, the amendment is now live and in effect.

In addition to the originally planned changes, the use of certain isolation shields has also been added to the permitted modification tables in the VIRM: In-service certification (WoF and CoF), provided they meet certain conditions. See the update to the glazing and interior impact sections in the lists of changes for more detail.

See the updated lists of changes for details:

VIRM: In-service certification (WoF only)

VIRM: In-service certification (WoF and CoF)

VIRM: Entry certification

VIRM: Entry certification (new light vehicles)
