The Federation of British Historic Vehicle Clubs (FBHVC) has reported that a driver of a historic vehicle has received a 'Notice of Prosecution' from an ill-briefed Policeman and there have been a few bureaucratic misunderstandings of the situation on the roads recently. The Federation has urgently sought clarification of the position from the Department of Transport who responded with the statement in the link below. The FBHVC has suggested the declaration could be printed out and carried in your vehicle to avoid any future confusion:-
