New Years Day Vehicle Meet - North Petherton Jn24 - 2016

The Annual meeting of classic vehicles held at North Petherton Junction 24, was once held in Taunton. Vehicles would meet in the Taunton Market Car Park before setting off in batches for a couple of laps around the town before returning to park. Since the market was closed by the local council it's now been moved to North Petherton, and sadly the town parade no longer takes place on New Years Day. Cars, Lorries, Vans, Busses, Bikes, Scooters, Tractors and Military Vehicles all meet on the first day of each year at the Junction 24 Market just outside North Petherton. Photography can be very difficult due to the amount of people and lack of organised parking / spacing of the attending, as the event is more of a gathering for vehicle owners to gather for a chat over a coffee before perhaps going for a drive. However perseverance can provide some great shots.
