What the vehicle actually weighs, it's curb weight, has nothing to do with it's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.
Under the new rules the decision on which test the vehicle gets is based on the capacity of the vehicle, not what it's licensed for.
It seems lots of people were exploiting a loophole in the system, lower the weight it's licensed for, get it e-tested, get the new sticker, then put the licensed weight back up.
They no longer allow 2 year license renewals for 'heavy duty' vehicles either.
