Driving a van without side windows

Post by fidget »

Hi all

After a short period of using my van , the post MOT honey moon period has passed and its time to get on with the body work again.

Next on the list is repairing the window edges so I can fit me nice tinted windows ( Cheers metalmick8ey :ok ).

Ideally I want to do them one at a time and being lucky to have me own half empty place of work I can take me van to work with me and work through the night but this will require me to drive the van.

My question is can I drive on the road without side windows? or will I get pulled for it :) .

cheers

Could certainly draw unwanted attention.
If you are repairing the window surrounds anyway I'd attach some plywood etc with self tappers.
Problem solved no sharp edges.

I had a guy bring a van to me with now side windows in. He came from Manchester to Crewe and didn't have a problem coming down the M6. :ok
