Comment: "I should have made it clear that the > signs as used on the French license mean "greater than." Thanks on PTAC but if you can try again better undertanding the question, I'd appreciate it. Her'es the full sentence: "Ensembles de vehcules de la categorie B dont le PTAC > 3,5 t ou le PTAC remorque > poids a vide du vehicule tracteur.""
