the fezz 44 Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 you can drive on the road up to 3 miles of the last field ,with no licence , the law used to be you could drive at 16 but that was a few years ago , have a look on the d.v.l.a website , might find out on there Quote Link to post Share on other sites
medic1281 5 Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 You can't drive on the road until you get your license at 16, and then you can only pull non articulated trailers until your 17. Agricultural law is a bit vague and my tutors at agric college advised that you are still limited to less than 7.5t until your 21. I've tried getting clarification on this but no one could tell me if its true. The only time you can drive on the road without a license is with L plates and that is to drive to your test. You can't drive with 'L' plates any other time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
