Yes crow flies / radius I use this tool. https://www.freemaptools.com/radius-around-point.htm

You might need a tacho & you might need an operators licence. You need to red the regs to find out as it can be very case specific.
-
You can have your vocational driving licence take away too.

Fit shocks.

An lgv trailer has its own registration and would be listed / identified via that registration. A trailer in class O2 does not have an individual registration. You might have a trailer listed on your O licence (not my area of experience) but not individually listed.
-
Its not the trailer that is O licence registered its the trader or business. The type of brakes on the trailer won't affect registration. Unladen weight does. Again I must admit I have not looked at how a 5th wheel set up would be affected by the O licence and the regs as so few are out there that are based on a cat B / BE licence. I would also have to consider if the applied load part of the trailers unladen solo weight is counted or not. Interesting puzzle.
-
That's a situation I must admit I have never considered or looked through the regs to see if thats right or not as why would you? I think the assumption is that sub 3500kg trailers will be over run type.
-
Currently sub 3500kg do not need to be registered or tested at all even if used with a C1 or C vehicle. You might need to be registered as an operator.
-
The new DVSA contracts are for weekends too
-
Makes no difference as the "work" is still your own.
-
This was what was thought and implemented. It has now been through the court processes & you do not need a tacho for this type of use.
-
If he is just doing driving work on each day there & back I would question that. With that length of trip it would be hard to say your not a driver.
-
Check out the Riko WP36
-
Registration & testing for sub 3500kg trailers is currently under consultation.
-
Not many will hire processor & no operator.
-
Message me. I have family near there so could stay with them to keep costs down.
-
You looking to rent in or hire out?

Now try to find a definition of unladen weight & a maker that follows that definition as they all use their own version. Then you will find that the regs then add on any extra fixed equipment too. Its a mess. Mass in service. unladen weight, kerb weight are all worked out differently. Most dealers cant even tell you the kerb weight (remember the speed thread ) The V5c gives you mass in service. Same as the second option of seats & load space. Virtually every case I has seen try to use that exemption has failed. Has anyone got an first hand experience of a successful case?
-
Yes thats why I said what I did. I love it when people quote the law at me that proves what i said.
-
Can you show me a 2000kg claus for that? The only 2000kg rule is for car derived vans.
-
When combined the new vehicle created is over 3500kg. But they exempt trailers under about 1000kg kerb weight that rules most out any way.
-
if its a full maintenance lease their costs go up.
-
Only if its for legitimate agricultural forestry or fishery use. Edit to add. Hauling cord & bales that you own will prob be ok. Outside of that you need a C1E or CE dep on weights to drive it. Plus white fuel, road tax, vehicle inspections etc.
-
Changed my mind.
-
Could you not get it on further? Or turn it round?
