Question 6027

In a vehicle over 5 meters long, used for transporting goods, a load of indivisible length may protrude...

  1. 15% of the vehicle's length in front and behind.
  2. 2 meters at the front and 3 at the rear.
  3. 3 meters at the front and 2 at the rear.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: 2 meters at the front and 3 at the rear.

On a goods vehicle over 5 meters long, a properly stowed load of indivisible length, like the beams in the image, may protrude up to 2 meters at the front and 3 meters at the rear. Don't reverse the numbers. The 15% limit applies to an indivisible load on a passenger car, and only at the rear.
