C&U?? Is that good or bad because if bush wires are illegal, then what about bull bars (ok - they are now!) winch bumpers, tree sliders etc...the vehicles were not built with them either.

Eeyore:
It's all related to the diameter of forward facing radii, or something daft like that, and not adding things to the frontal aspect of your vehicle that will increase the liklehood of injury to a pedestrian.

Bull bars have already gone, new bumper regs have come into force, how long before winches are identified as a potential hazard?

Before anyone leaps up and has a go, as Mods and Admins we are kinda duty bound to highlight this sort of point. It stops any risk of us getting drawn into legal wranglings if someone gets collared for something potentially inappropriate because 'they read it on a forum'.  :wink:

Cheers

marsie:
construction and use is a grey area to say the least :roll: .I think the main concern with tree wires is if you run somebody over and they roll onto the bonnet,the wires could cause damage to them,in the same way as it is now illegal to fit fixed bonnet mascots
