Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations further amend the Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations 1986.
Regulation 36A of the 1986 Regulations made provision for certain goods vehicles first used on or after 1st August 1992 to be fitted with speed limiters. These Regulations extend that regulation so that it applies to certain goods vehicles first used on or after 1st January 1988 and which would otherwise have a maximum speed exceeding 60 mph.
The vehicles which are affected by the amendment are motor vehicles which have a maximum gross weight exceeding 16 tonnes and—
(a)are constructed to form part of an articulated vehicle; or
(b)can lawfully tow a trailer with a laden weight exceeding 5 tonnes.
The Regulations also amend the 1986 Regulations so as to require speed limiters fitted on or after 1st August 1992 to be sealed by authorised sealers. Provision is made for the authorisation of sealers by the Secretary of State.
