ADR Regulations

An ADR driver is required by law to carry an ADR certificate when carrying goods that are in scope of the regulations.

This is true no matter what the size of your vehicle, ADR is about the size of the quantities of the goods being carried, so large or small ADR is for all. To carry goods that fall into scope of the ADR regulations you must pass a test in the core element.
