Checking the vehicle and trailer weight

  • To check that the weights of the towing vehicle and the trailer comply with the maximum permissible values, have the vehicle/trailer combination (including the driver, passengers, and cargo with a fully laden trailer) weighed on a calibrated weighbridge.
  • Check the gross axle weight rating of the front and rear axles, the gross weight of the trailer and trailer drawbar noseweight.
