    Vosa are at it again

    I have a tacho fitted and I am complying with the drivers hours rules, always have cos I also run under an O Licence. What I asked for was clarification from Vosa.

    What is the maximum horse height for a???

    You'll need to take a trailer test 'cos you're after 1997, its not very hard but you'll need lessons or instruction/practice. loads of people fail on reversing so make sure you can do it well. After that you need to find out what the towing capacity of your car/4x4 is and then find a trailer...
