What License do I Need

Postby kfxnando » Sun Jan 23, 2011 6:12 am

well our Ford Courier has a speck of GVM 4160km

my license is the old code 8, and today's EB
witch allows me to drive a vehicle with a GVM of 3500kg

however my vehicle clearly states that its rated at 4160kg

what is the difference between me driving my Courier that is specked out of my drivers license limits and driving a F-250 with the same code 8 license!!

U need to have the lisence applicable to the vehicle u are driving. If you don't then in the casse of an accident that
Can cause your claim to be rejected.

ok then!!

my Ford Courier says GVM 4160kg
that means me and thousands of others out there are driving with invalid drivers license!!
as my license like many other, code 8 or EB only allow us to drive vehicles with GVM of 3500kg

something is not right!!
self see it like this, the tag is what the manufacturer says the vehicle is legally and safely allowed to do!!
however it exceeds what my drivers license stipulates!!

however the banks approved the finance, with part of the condition that I have a valid drivers license for the vehicle being financed!! and the insurance has the whole situation as well!!

unless the banks and the insurance companys have turned a blind eye to the situation!!

something here is not right!!
