AFTER months of pressure over a fatal tanker crash, almost 200 Cootes trucks will now need to comply with NSW standards.
NSW Roads Minister Duncan Gay said on Wednesday that Cootes' parent company McAleese Group had voluntarily removed its vehicles from the National Heavy Vehicle Accreditation Scheme and transferred them to the state's registration scheme.
"Almost 190 trucks will now be under the stringent inspections NSW carries out on all of its heavy vehicles," he said in a statement.
It comes after two people were killed in October when a Cootes tanker overturned and exploded in Mona Vale on Sydney's northern beaches.
Earlier this month Mr Gay threatened to ground Cootes' entire fleet when a gas leak was found in one of its LPG tankers.
"I emphasise the compliance campaign with Cootes has been ongoing since the Mona Vale accident and we will not complete our work until our truck inspectors are satisfied the fleet is safe and the company's regulatory and audit regime is adequate," Mr Gay said.
