VASS now required for lhd classics

[Jack91]

I did also notice a new clause in the unregistered vehicle permits which is equally as dumb.
If you are driving a lhd car on a uvp, they require a fully competent driver in the right hand front seat to help observe traffic.
Once its registered though (once you have your vass cert of course, cos safety first) then the backup person isnt required.
Is this even real? Who the hell comes up with this crap?
