It's that time of the year again

It's that time of the year again when we're all starting to think about putting up our Christmas decorations in the comings weeks. While the time on exactly when the tree should go up will vary in all households, there's one thing you can't get away from if you're buying a real tree - and that's how to get it home in the car.

The motoring offence that you could end up committing is known as CU50 - causing or likely to cause danger by reason of load or passengers.
