A thought occured to me this morning (it's okay, I was sitting down at the time ;D)...

Commercial vehicles are forbidden to travel on Sundays in alot of Europe.

Don't know if that is any vehicle over a certain weight or ALL commercial vehicles :-\ the only exception is, I believe, livestock carriers :-\

Best double check to save hassle and time the ferries to suit :y

Exceptions for post, livestock and private use ;)

But, AFAIK, it only applies to vehicles over 3.5T :-\

That's correct and I think there are other exceptions for the big trucks, such as if you are within 100kms of a ferry port and have a booking you are allowed to drive to catch your ferry.  :)
