weighing over 30cvvt unladen but under 3.5 tons when fully laden. This is run in the course of his greengrocery business. Could you please tell me whether:—
(a) The trailer needs plating?
(b) My friend needs a C licence for either vehicle?
(c) He needs an h.g.v. driving licence? A 17-year-old can drive the combination of Land-Rover and trailer?
A Your friend's trailer is exempt from the
requirements of the plating and testing regulations if "it has no other brakes than a parking brake and brakes which automatically come into operation on the overrun of the trailer". As the trailer weighs over 30cwt unladen a C licence is needed and when operators' licensing takes effect on March 1, 1970, an operator's licence will be required. A heavy goods vehicle driving licence will not be required as the towing vehicle (the Land-Rover), weighs less than 3 tons unladen. A 17-year-old driver can drive the Land-Rover and trailer combination.
