Rules for vehicle graphics in Whitchurch
Wrapping or lettering a vehicle in Wales follows the same road and registration rules as the rest of Great Britain. Graphics on a vehicle that is normally driven are outside advertisement control, although a vehicle left parked mainly as an advert is treated differently. Change the main colour and the V5C needs updating with DVLA, and your insurer needs to know. Graphics stay off the windscreen and front side windows, which must transmit at least 75% and 70% of light respectively. Leased? Check the agreement permits graphics and how they must come off. We plan every layout around these points from the first proof.
