Apologies for those that have read this on another forum

I have read many many messages on here regarding overweight vans and vehicles and lots of complicated arguments regarding ATM's GVM's and various other acronyms and how hell and damnation (as well as police and insurance companies - if there is any difference!) will descend on all those innocent vanners who break these complicated rules.
The question I have is - has anyone personally fallen foul of these bastions of the law - and please persoanl accounts, not i have a friend whose brother owns a pub where someone came in and told them they had met someone who knew of a bloke that was actually prosecuted or had a claim refused.
Reason for asking is that I have had two fairly major caravan insurance claims over the last few years and not once did they even mention weights so I think it is a a bit of scaremongering!!
