BDifficulty 2/5

From 1 October 2026, does a driver have a seatbelt exemption solely for making successive goods deliveries with loading and unloading in a built-up area?

Correct answer

No, delivery work alone does not grant that exemption.

No. Current article 119 no longer includes that former delivery-driver exemption. Use the belt if fitted unless another specific legal exemption applies, such as a documented medical exemption or reversing or parking manoeuvre. Delivery work or a short distance alone does not permit travel without a belt.
