DSE on means of transport are specifically excluded from the Regs; see the HSE guidance.

Ben,
My gut feeling is No, based on table 2 in the Guidance associated with Reg.1.
The exclusions mentioned by Paul are covered by paragraphs 22 to 26 of the Guidance.
By implication a driver will not be concentrating for long periods on the ticket machine - because he will be driving.
Paul, was there anything more definite mentioned which I have missed?

Regulation 1(4) states that nothing in the Regulations shall apply to or in relation to:
driver's cabs or control cabs for vehicles or machinery
display screen equipment on board a means of transport.
Also excluded are calculators, cash registers or any equipment having a small data or measurement display required for direct use of the equipment.
