2016 saw the UK vote to leave the EU, Donald Trump preparing to move into his new house across the pond, and Sadiq Khan introduce unprecedented safety measures for operators working in London.

But these headlines aside, 2016 has still been a busy year for the road transport sector. As we approach the end of the hugely eventful 2016, the MT team discuss the year's key events, Brexit aside, and the things to look out for in the coming months.

Also, Motor Transport editor Steve Hobson and reporter Hayley Pink pop in to talk about the year's most popular news stories.

We'll be back with more podcasts in the new year, but in the meantime, have a very merry Christmas and a happy new year.
