Question 4857

How must a load that protrudes from a motorcycle be marked?

  1. With a regulation panel at the end of the load.
  2. On motorcycles, the load does not need to be marked.
  3. At night with a red light at the rear.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: On motorcycles, the load does not need to be marked.

On a motorcycle, the load may extend up to 0.25 meters beyond the rear and 0.50 meters on each side of the longitudinal axis, but it does not need a V-20 panel or a red light. Those markings are for loads extending beyond the rear of wider vehicles, such as a passenger car or truck.
