was having a chat with one of the blokes i used to work with the other day and i asked when he passed his class 1 as a regular part of the job is towing trailers . haven’t he replied
the trailers are approx 2.5 t on for wheels with overrun brakes ( like a caravan)
i don’t want an old friend serving time as he’s to pretty for jail and would like some solid facts to scare him with the next time i talk to him
the drivers on the 17 t hold class 2 and the rest hold ordinary car licence’s
Well firstly you would need to qualify if your pretty friend has a Class 2 or a Cat C because i seem to remember that an old class 2 was OK for Wag and Drag.
Also depends when the 7.5 ton guys passed there tests as well to define the legality.If they hold 7.5 ton entitlement I think they can tow as long as total MAM is less than 8.25 tons.
I could be talking complete tosh so I’ll duck out and make way for DieselDave and Coffeeholic to correct things

Not me, too much of a minefield and too many variables to get into it at this time of the day.
There you go, ROG is alert enough to provide the answer at this time of day.
