Saner tag and trailer (1 Viewer)

[Howard H]

just a quick question , will I be able to use my sanef tag in France this June if I am towing my smart car behind my mh ,or am I classed as a lorry for toll purposes ?

assuming you are currently less than 3500kg and under 3 metres you should be OK with the trailer as well according to this.

Brilliant thanks ,with a little poetic license I fit under the 3500 weight limit ( I can't lie I don't ) but was ok last year with being just a little over 150 kg so hopefully will be ok this year with the toad . Many thanks

there is a different tag that Sanef Tolling UK recommends for larger vehicles (https://www.eurotoll.eu/ )
but I decided that as our M/h is over 4 tonne we would send it back and try to use Autoroutes a lot less as I didn't fancy paying class 3

AND as I don't need modified driving controls can't claim the disabled class 1

you will be charged class 3 because you have more than two axles, we get it all the time, I tow my car in france on an a-frame our motor home is over 3500 mine was a paper exercise via SV-tech took me to 3850, they can't measure your weight, i am over 3 meters. As we speak i am rectifying that ( taking my dome of the roof, and fitting low profile fold down sat system (teleco), but because of all this i usually use Tollticket's tag, you pay more but you are legal. if i don't tow car i use sanef.

If you are less than 3 metres high you'll have no problems at Class 2.

Above that height the problems start.

We will be 3.3m our caravan was 2.8m so sailed through used to love using the tag as the gates almost never had a queue and we never had to stop ordinarily as long as we slowed down enough to give the system time

Just an idea if I put it on my single axle trailer instead of the A frame do you think I would still incur class 3 ? It's then only like a car and caravan .

I have never got away with it, and i have a single axle trailer as well as the a-frame, hence taking the dome of to see if i can get under the 3 meter's, and see if that works.

Under 3500kg and under 3 metres even towing is class 2, see the links above.
