dirt bike laws

<< < (4/7) > >>

dxmedia:
There is no way that an electric bike could be considered in the same category as one with a petrol engine. Nope, not in any way shape or form

Range Rover Blues:
It used to be that if one wheel was suspended above the floor it was "legal" but I think that as a  car has to be taxed and tested before it can be towed (used to be classed as a trailer) so a motorbike has to be road legal.

As for getting it back, I think you have to provided the documents (tax, test, insurance).

landmannnn:
If the wheels are not touching the ground you are fine...

That was how I used to understand it too but that was a long time ago so probably loads different now.  I'd still not like to chance it - It's a bit like when vosa stop you with an empty trailer that's plated higher than the tow vehicle - you might not be doing any thing wrong, but you could

Range Rover Blues:
According to the Gov't own website it is legal to tow a trailer plated above the rated tow capacity of the car provided it is not loaded above that limit.  However if the plated ability takes it inot "large trailer" staus you need cat C on your licence.
