In a previous paper, we considered the motion of massive spinning test particles in the ``pole-dipole'' approximation, as described by the Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon (MPD) equations and examined its properties in dependence on the spin supplementary condition. We decomposed the equations in the orthonormal tetrad based on the timelike vector fixing the spin condition and on the corresponding spin, while representing the curvature in terms of the Weyl scalars obtained in the Newman-Penrose null tetrad naturally associated with the orthonormal one; the projections thus obtained did not contain the Weyl scalars ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Psi}}}_{0}$ and ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Psi}}}_{4}$. In the present paper, we choose the interpretation tetrad in a different way, attaching it to the tangent ${u}^{\ensuremath{\mu}}$ of the worldline representing the history of the spinning body. Actually two tetrads are suggested, both given ``intrinsically'' by the problem and each of them incompatible with one specific spin condition. The decomposition of the MPD equation, again supplemented by writing its right-hand side in terms of the Weyl scalars, is slightly less efficient than in the massive case, because ${u}^{\ensuremath{\mu}}$ cannot be freely chosen (in contrast to ${V}^{\ensuremath{\mu}}$) and so the ${u}^{\ensuremath{\mu}}$-based tetrad is less flexible. In the second part of this paper, a similar analysis is performed for massless spinning particles; in particular, a certain intrinsic interpretation tetrad is again found. The respective decomposition of the MPD equation of motion is considerably simpler than in the massive case, containing only ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Psi}}}_{1}$ and ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Psi}}}_{2}$ scalars and not the cosmological constant. An option to span the spin-bivector eigenplane, besides the worldline null tangent, by a main principal null direction of the Weyl tensor can lead to an even simpler result.
