7.5t Tipper - what's best?

[Peter]

What Bob said.

 

I can honestly say I have never overloaded my 18 tonner, stacked it as high as possible with timber and put it on a weigh bridge and it was comfortably under. Felt like a really heavy load too.

[Ian C]

Yeah I understand what bob said ref overloading but what I was getting at is it pretty much the same consequences on an o licence as the same as a 3.5t ie a fine per k over or is it more serious like points or licence revoked.

[Peter]

It would affect your operator compliance score (ocs) but if you only run one truck, pass your mots first time and you don't get stopped randomly early on you probably won't ever be stopped.

 

The way it works with the ocs system means they target operators with a poor history and leave everyone else alone.

Got it thanks Peter, all my kit is well maintained so I wouldn't have a problem with that.
