Liberty Tag - how strict are the height restrictions?

[oblio]

Hi

I have a Tag for the French Mways which is for use with Class 1 and 2 vehicles. No issue with cars however I have just bought a motorhome and the Tag is limited to 3.5tonne plus 3m in height.

I am aware that they do not tend to worry about the weight however I am trying to find out how strict they are on height. My MH is offically 3.05m so 5cm over the height limit. However fully laden she may well be lower by a cm or two.

I have no issue paying the correct levy and would get a Class 3 tag if they did them for private use (which they dont).

Is there anyone in the know who can advise on this? Do they use sensors? If so is there any tolerance (plus xx% or xxcm perhaps)?

Cheers

Im more worried about causing a tailback and having irate Frenchies having to reverse up to let me out

Thanks folks

If its just a question of paying some extra I wouldnt have an issue with that at all. My main concern is that the 'computer says non!' and we have a queue behind of irate Frenchies!

It doesnt help that we are going in August when it will be busy

Herdwick - is there anyway you could measure the horsebox height at all? Or let me have the spec so I can check it out?

Ok no worries - cheers for checking

I'll start another thread about the tags for larger vehicles
