I don't have transport and it's not something I'm interested in having, so this is a PURELY THEORETICAL question, but was pondering and came up with a potentially really stupid question.
I know that to drive a 3.5t lorry on a car license the whole weight inc driver, fuel, tack, horses etc has to be under 3500kg.
What if the driver has a license to drive bigger but for whatever reason doesn't want to? Most 3.5t lorries have space/headroom for 2 big horses - is that allowed, or is it actually that a lorry of this size is actually incapable of safely carrying the weight?
