Timber trailers on public roads
agrimog replied to Tom87's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
another information sheet put into circulation by a dept, not the definitive act or statute... construction and use act trumps any such leaflets, check it if your in any doubt, sect 15 and 16 are quite clear, and are the ONLY legislative information that can be used in a court, not some advisory leaflet -
