I assume it is with a set of wheels in the middle. As the overhang is over the legally permitted limits, are they correctly informing the Police of an abnormal load movement? Are they correctly affixing warning signs or, as I suspect, merely putting a rag on the end of it? -- Conor www.notebooks-r-us.co.uk I'm not prejudiced. I hate everybody equally.

Conor <conor(a)gmx.co.uk> gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying: >> You cannot use a vehicle on the road wothout a tax disc, therefore you >> pay to use the road. >> >> What part don't you understand. > I understand all of it, unlike you. Please tell me how much I pay to tax > a pre 1972 registered car? Exactly the same as you'd pay to tax a 1972 registered one, or a selection of 1973 registered ones, or even a bunch of new and near-new ones. |
