Olley,

I see that rigs in the UK are, on average, getting bigger. When I started traveling to the UK and Europe about 15 years ago the rigs were very compact. And rightfully so, there are some mighty small roads that have to be negotiated.

Are the roads getting bigger too or are the rigs just using more of what is there?

Hi Jerry rigs are getting bigger but the roads are just the same.

Most manufactures ranges go from about 6-8 metres and one or two over that.

Biggest problem is that most european standard car driving licenses only allow up to 3500kg GVW, so I can't see big rigs becomming the norm.
