Of course you can. Each follows the rules applicable to them. Never seen a staff only notice?

Club site users keep to 5mph, wardens 8mph, case proved. Now I'll be sticking to the topic.

Read upthread Dave where you answered to JK. No idea about driving skills. Getting off topic so I'll leave it there.

The bit I read from JK was that the site  tractors are governed to 8 mph not that they are allowed to drive them at 8 Mph. I don’t know if it is still the case but about 15 years ago I complained to the then caravan club about the wardens at Brighton going at what I considered to be more than 5mph and was told they are restricted to the same speeds as the rest of us. Maybe JK can tell is if that has changed.

The most dangerous situation I have seen of late is the dash for a pitch in 3500kg vehicles at York not kids on scooters, and no I didn't take their number and report to the site management.

Not 4250kg or 2850kg or cars with caravans but 3500kg vehicles which must have been MHs? Did you check their weight plates, Wedgy, or are you elaborating just a tiny bit?😀

I can only relate to what I have genuinely seen. Solo cars and car and caravan outfits do exceed the limit but the high proportion are MH's probably because it is easy for a single vehicle to do so? I am not in any way anti MH's but it is a fact that a large proportion are relatively new to our hobby and this may lead to the excessive speeds I have witnessed.

only those of 3500kg

That's not what I have just said.
