I suspect you actually mean the court can't refuse to accept payment (to at least the value) made in smaller numbers of coins.
(A similar issue is that there is no right to change.)
No.
This page:
has a rather extensive list of cargo capacities for various vehicles.
Very few have a rating greater that 1000 pounds, and the ones that have ratings above 2000 pounds are not "cars".
A tonne is just short of a long ton. I suppose you might be able to GET a tonne in a car,but if you do, it won't GO anywhere.
So your teachers actually achieved something with you.
Actually 'tonne' means a metric ton, 1000kg. A short ton means 2000lbs as opposed to an Imperial or Long Ton of 2240lbs.

I am quite aware of what a tonne is.
And it is indeed, just short of a long ton.
Except, perhaps, in UnclePeterWorld.
I expect it would go although the first sleeping policeman or pothole it hits will be its last. Typically anything above 500kg is pushing it in a saloon car. Way back I helped a friend collect some heavy stuff once and the return journey was interesting with the mudflaps scraping on the ground at every bend. I very much doubt if it was a safe load.
Which at 2205lbs is pretty close to 1 stone short of a long ton.
so a tonne is, conveniently, almost the same weight as an imperial ton.

It saves the Dibnahs getting any more confused when faced with sensible measurements.
ROTFLMBAO of at that statement.
In what subject then Hucker - odds on it's for reading bullshit or telling tall-stories?
Now stop bloody contradicting yourself - either you went to school or you didn't, which was it?
If you actually have a valid degree, then you must have gone to school and studied and behaved like a 'teachers pet' and you *must* be telling porkies about most of what you post here and elsewhere Hucker - or living in cloud cuckoo land.
Posts me, with aching sides.
What! You use a golf buggy as transport? What a load of balls! ;-)
I see you don't have any qualifications in English.
Physics. Oh, and Digital Microelectronics.
I didn't say either. So no contradiction possible.
Nope, you can have stupid teachers pets and clever normal folk.
For example?
