I would think that if it's that out of balance that there something wrong with it.
Bent maybe ?

If it's a long solid driveshaft it should a damper clamped into the middle of it, if that's missing or in the wrong place you might get a vibration.
The long tubular ones don't have the damper.

Does anyone know if there is a problem (e.g. with the MOT or legal) if you 
balance a drive shaft yourself with screw clips and weights?

Wheels are well balanced on a testing machine and yet there is steering and 
body shake at 65mph.  Checks seem to indicate the driveshaft on the off side.  
I was thinking of trying a DIY balance to diagnose or possible cure it.

Thanks
