New digital tachograph smart cards are made from thin plastic. Like your credit or fuel cards, they scratch, break and easily fall out of wallets and get lost. When this happens, just like loosing your other cards, it is a major hassle. But the difference is that tachograph smart cards are effectively legal documents and losing or damaging one will cost £19.00. Get the lost card procedure wrong and drive a truck fitted with a digital tachograph without one and it could cost you a lot more.
