Have you been stopped at all by the police.  I've seen about 3 police cars in about the last 4 weeks.. Never been stopped.. Thinking of going next week running out of local work to do😁

Police will only stop you if you decide to start playing classical music...... ;D

Other than 6 houses I do about 1 mile from where I live, the rest is all within 1/4 mile from where I live. So like Darran, not far.
I've had loads of police cars go past me and one of my customers is a policeman and so far none have said a word other than a "thankyou" from my customer.

Why are you worried about the police stopping you? You're going to work.

For work about 12 miles farthest from home.

exactly.......nothing to worry about(unless you have no insurance,tax or MOT!)....... ;D

Furthest ive travelled in the last 5 weeks is around 10 miles for some commercial work,most work is 5 or 6 miles away......
price higher/work harder!

120 mile round trip, once a month. Did it last week, nice empty roads. You’re travelling to work, it’s allowed and perfectly legal, nothing at all to worry about.

100 miles. Got a job in Norfolk next week, maybe 250 miles away. Accomadation is tricky.

It's really weird how some people interpret these rules.

Why would you avoid your furthest away work?

I'd travel to the other end of the country if I was paid enough, in fact im sure it would be a great drive at the moment.

Dont forget when the MOT period of grace is lifted getting one will be like buying bog roll a month ago.

I got mine done last Friday.
