An apparatus for indicating a lack of compliance with a load handling procedure such as whether the vehicle entering quarry, refuse disposal site, or the like, has been weighed at a weighbridge both entering and leaving a site. The apparatus comprises processing circuitry with memory 106, which obtains data relating to a vehicle identifier detected at a load handling site. The data indicates whether the vehicle identifier was detected in a load handling monitoring zone (e.g. in the correct lane) of the load handling site during a visit by a corresponding vehicle and whether the vehicle performed at least one action at the load handling site. The processing circuitry generates a notification indicating the vehicle to have not complied with the load handling procedure during the visit depending on the data. The vehicle identifier may make use of automatic number plate recognition cameras (ANPR)102. The apparatus may optionally incorporate a weight measurement circuit 108, a vehicle position sensor 110 and a radiation detector 112. A system and method are also claimed.
