[edit] HGV

The use of this term is now deprecated in the United Kingdom, in favour of LGV for Large Goods Vehicle. Suggest renaming the article? Sticki 18:03, 20 September 2005 (UTC)

No. *Everybody* uses the term HGV, and I don't think that's likely to change. You could mention this in the article, though. PeteVerdon 01:13, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] LGV

Only problem is that Light Goods Vehicle (a vehicle not exceeding 3,500kgs gross weight) may also be shortened to LGV. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.198.13.188 (talk • contribs) 11:36, 13 October 2006

[edit] Tachograph

All LGV's are required by law to be fitted with Tachograph equipment which records the driver's activity during driving

No - not "all". Only ones that drive further than a 30 mile radius from their starting point or are used to draw trailers. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 217.155.110.198 (talk) 10:46, 27 February 2007 (UTC).
