Ag Reg truck..CAN OF WORMS....OPEN AND STAND BACK :)

[treequip]

Winch was factory fitted so plated as a specialist winch vehicle, not just some ebay add on which they said would not qualify as something like an fixt implement for intended purpose whatever that means? management off roadside trees was more relavent as im a registered contract for north yorkshire highways agency and a good % off my turnover comes from this contract so traceble as is the foresty side off my work not just a tree in some 1's garden that's near a road.

Thankyou for liking it as I love it and sad as it is useing it makes me

 

So did they give you a letter or anything?

 

How will you prove exemption when you get pulled?

 

I only ask because none of the above adds up to an exemption under the law as it stands.

 

There is no exemption for vehicles fitted with a winch (factory fit or otherwise), none for cutting roadside trees and none for holding any contract with anyone, and no exemption for any combination of any of the above.

I should clarify that on the new log book its agricultural vehicle if that makes more sence with the o licence things, didn't put that in at one point too try and avoid this discussion on my thred which was about the modification not the registration off a vehicle and ment as a bit off a picture thred not a debate 1 like this. Goodnight.

So to sum up, no exemption of any kind and winging it on agricultural?

:thumbup::thumbup:

Aint that sort off an exemption, but what I said still stands they would only alowed registration like this because off use and type so a bog standard 1 for a landscaping company would not have qualifyed

So why piss down my back and tell me its raining?

 

If you were going to lie you could have just said it was on an "O" licence and left it at that

[Gray git]

I didn't tell you it was raining, you just didn't look up and make sure it wasn't. Hope you're not too wet and going too hunt me down

All ment in jest

[treequip]

Oh I knew it wasn't raining alright, all those hard to answer questions should have told you that much

[Gray git]

You missed you're calling as detective inspector treequip like I said just wanted too keep my thred on track and dont mind deraling some1 elses and saying it was on a o licence would have been lying and saying it was exempt from needing 1 wasn't, well sort off.

Its a fair cop guvner

To be fair the whole point of this thread is to establish whether or not its worth winging it to put it plainly. If I can get away with running a commercial as ag reg and not pay for my cat c, operators license , tax, commercial insurance and a maintenence agreement then I would!! If its not worth winging it ill keep running the tractor and im sure we could start a 100 page debate on wether I run it outside of what customs and excise state as the letter of the law.

How much do you not understand the issues here?

 

HMCE there remit is fuels and red you definitely can not do but it is nothing to do with operating the vehicle.

 

VOSA, well the V stands for Vehicle and they (with plod) are your main issue here, if you think they are wrong in the letter of the law then by all means challenge it.
