hi all
Does anyone know what, if any, the consequences are if you are found to be overweight?
We know how to uprate the gross vehicle weight and the cost for this going through SVTech is around £350 inc VAT, but feel it is just a paper exercise for DVLA as the van has an extra 400kg weight potential (based on testing certs).
The question is, if you are stopped, weighted and found to be over weight using the noted weight on the V5 what can the authorises (both in UK and a EU) do?
Are there any such cases of people being 'done'?
Thanks in advance.
