Check for dispensations and exemptions
Is your truck 40 years or older? Then you may be able to get a dispensation. Trucks from the police or fire department can also get a dispensation. Some trucks may be exempt. For example: electric trucks and vans up to 4,250 kg. Read more on our Dispensation and Exemption page.
