Correct answer
Vehicles that can exceed 3.5 tonnes MAM.
Vehicles that can exceed 3.5 tonnes MAM. This threshold concerns maximum authorised mass, not payload or actual weight on a journey. The old figures of 6 tonnes mass and 3.5 tonnes payload must not be presented as the current ROTT definition. Exceeding the threshold alone does not secure an authorisation: the undertaking must meet the other applicable requirements.
