Vehicle operators can now tow LSTs measuring up to 2.05 metres longer than a standard semi-trailer (up to 15.56 metres long). Trailer manufacturer Don-Bur points out that expectations were that operators would be able to run LSTs like standard 13.7m trailers when they became legal . But the regulations have not simply increased the existing length regulations by 2.05m to suit. The existing Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations 1986 will remain unchanged. LSTs have been added as a new trailer type under the new 2023 No 524 Road Vehicles (Authorisation of Special Types) (General) Order 2023, commonly known as STGO. |
