On Psychotechnical Reports

Dear Member,

We hereby submit for your information the relevant letter numbered 23635644-249-21334, which contains the following information: according to subparagraph 1/e of Article 34, entitled "Qualifications and Conditions Required of Drivers", of the Road Transport Regulation, which entered into force upon publication in the Official Gazette dated 08.01.2018 and numbered 30295, persons practising the profession of driver must obtain a health report from authorised health institutions every 5 years showing that they are physically and psychotechnically healthy, and according to subparagraph 2/b, an administrative fine in the amount specified in subparagraph (e) of the first paragraph of Article 26 of the Road Transport Law will be imposed in the event of non-compliance with this provision; the period set for taking action under Article 26 of Road Transport Law No. 4925 against those (driver/operator) found not to have a Psychotechnical Assessment Report had been extended until 31.12.2020 due to the Coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic; However, in order to postpone the set period with a view to preventing grievances that may arise as the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic continues and during the controlled social life period, and to minimise the risk of transmission of the virus due to possible congestion, and as a result of the Ministry of Health's assessments that the numbers of "Unapproved Reports and Rejected Reports" in the "e-Report System" database are high and that grievances that may arise during the controlled social life period, in addition to the difficulties experienced during the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic, should be prevented; it has been deemed appropriate to extend the date set as 31.12.2020 for the last time until 30.06.2021, and in queries to be made after 30.06.2021, action will be taken under subparagraph (e) of Article 26 of Road Transport Law No. 4925 against those (driver/operator) found not to have a valid/adequate Psychotechnical Assessment Report,

Submitted for your information.
