If they’re over 4.5t, and a kitted out one can get that heavy, they do need to upgrade to light rigid.

The simple solution is to start requiring heavy vehicle licences for these tanks.

The majority of them have a GVM of 3495kg, which is just below the threshold of requiring an upgraded licence.
I am pretty sure they do get kitted out above the GVM without a legal GVM upgrade.
I would love to see a VicRoads blitz on GVMs of large vehicles and Caravans.

HR is for big trucks. LR / MR would be appropriate for these jumbo cars. Bigger fines for fuck ups too. Should also be 0.00% on the breatho.
