Hamish Posted November 27, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2021 I don’t understand how in the US you can build what ever you like and have it on the road. Even down to not having wings ( fenders) mudguards let alone those massive crate engines ?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Different concept of enforcing responsible social behaviour, rather than setting a legally acceptable construction standard, the US seems to use civil litigation to control behaviour- if that vehicle hurts anyone the US legal fraternity will bankrupt the owner and all associated with the car. History seems to have developed these two different societies approaches to achieving the same end. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
