I collected my newly converted 3.5t horsebox on Saturday, and proceeded to drive it 8 hours back home (couldn't have chosen a company much further from home!).
With a horse in it, I wouldn't go above 50mph on a motorway for my own peace of mind, but I wondered about unladen?
I'd heard that I can go 50mph on a single carriageway marked at National Speed Limit (60mph for cars), at 60mph on a dual carriageway (70mph for cars) and at 70mph on a motorway, same as cars. Is this true? I stayed at 60 everywhere anyway as I'd never driven anything that big before!
Thought I'd check in here before trying to go contact DVLA.
