    Hi all :)

    I was wondering can I strap a car onto the back of a light dropside truck?
    Since I have a track-day car which isn't street legal I need to transport it to Mondello
    and I can't tow it with a rope because thats illegal as well, I have a B license.

    You can strap anything you want to a truck as long as you have a licence to drive it, its road legal ie its lashed down properly and it doesnt exceed the gross vehicle weight.

    I'm sure you realise you can't drive the truck on a B licence.

    This too shall pass.

    Depends on weight of the truck.
    Cat. B licence allows to drive passenger and goods vehicles up to 3500kg DGVW (design gross vehicle weight).
    Truck is nothing else than goods vehicle.
