Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• Proposed changes in driving-licence requirements could encourage growth in the large-volume 3.5-tonne market, McDonald Kane of Nottingham has developed a lightweight semi-trailer to be used behind either a 120D Ford Transit or Leyland Daf 400 Series chassis cab.

As standard, the trailer comprises an all-aluminium body and incorporates a rollershutter door at the rear. An Oldbury lightweight trailer axle with conventional monoleaf suspension is mounted on an aluminium subframe.

The 6.1m (20ft) model gives an internal volume of 28in' (1,000ft3) — more than twice the capacity of the largestcapacity high-roof 3.5-tonne panel van, while maintaining a payload of 1.25 tonnes.

The price of about 26,800 includes the fifth wheel and compressor for trailer brakes.
