If you have a truck sat-nav a tape measure is handy for finding out your vehicle’s length and width. This information is rarely included on the ministry plate I’ve found. :confused: I drive rigids

Height is really the important one… The settings on my sat-nav are the same as the ones I found in that one truck that one time, except for height which I do at the start of the day (if I even need the satnav).

I’ll agree to the ability to resist hitting other drivers and add a lunchbox.

You don’t need a tape measure to find the height of your rigid as this information MUST be displayed in-cab. Are you stupid or something?

Surprisingly you won’t always find a height marker plate in a rigid. Would you automatically trust it anyway? Checking the height of the vehicle he’s driving wouldn’t make him stupid in most folks eyes - blindly trusting whoever put the info on the height marker plate is a bit risky (perhaps even “stupid”)

No height marker = truck doesn’t move. Another simpleton :unamused:
