transparent surface ruling

No display on a transparent surface may exceed 13cm in height.

Does this include windscreen sunstrips?

"(H)28.1.4 no display on a transparent surface can exceed 13cm in height. To clarify, the word 'display' refers to all advertising material on the individual transparent surface."


So I can keep my sunstrip, and stick anything I like on that sunstrip, but the sunstrip itself cant be taller than 13cm at the tallest point? Its presently 13.5cm tall in the centre, and 16.5cm at the edges.

Or does this 'clarification' just concern itself with advertising/writing directly on a transparent background, in which case, sunstrips are outside of this area because the sunstrip itself is a length of plain white fablon (from B&Q) and this turns the transparent area in to an white one?



Wheres that bucket of sand when I need it?

What a ridiculous load of nonsense!!

What next?....

No bonnet pins more than 320mm from the corner of the bonnet?

or maybe

No hexagonal valve caps?

I cannot belive that the MSA have nothing better to do than write utter rubbish like this!!

I believe they have also written a ruling that no fuel samples are allowed to be transported in officials cars.
Can't get insurance, so that means fuel samples won't be sampled
But you still have to buy an expensive dry break
