Question 5967

Can the load stick out from the sides of a passenger car?

  1. No.
  2. Yes, as long as it does not compromise the vehicle's stability.
  3. Yes, if marked with a red-and-white striped panel.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No.

No. A load on a passenger car must not extend beyond its sides, including from the roof rack. No panel makes this allowed, and keeping the load from compromising stability is not enough either. A load on a passenger car may only protrude at the rear.
