Agricultural vehicles: implementing EU regulation 167/2013

This consultation seeks views on the national regulations implementing EU Regulation 167/2013. This EU regulation governs the European type approval framework for agricultural and forestry vehicles, such as:

• tractors
• trailers
• towed equipment

The regulation introduces higher road safety, operator safety and environmental standards for tractors. It creates the possibility to obtain EU approval for fast tractors, trailers and towed equipment for the first time.

We would like to hear comments on our proposals for implementation and the consultation includes a small number of questions for consultees to answer.
