Question 2784

How far may luggage carried in a passenger car extend beyond the rear of the vehicle's body?

  1. It may extend beyond the rear by up to 10% of the vehicle's length, or up to 15% if it is indivisible.
  2. A maximum of 1.5 meters.
  3. If the luggage or objects being carried cannot be divided, one-third of the vehicle's total length.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: It may extend beyond the rear by up to 10% of the vehicle's length, or up to 15% if it is indivisible.

Rear overhang is calculated based on the passenger car's length: it may reach 10%, or 15% when the load is indivisible.
