When is it obligatory to hold a police authorization for transporting a long freight?
- When the length of the freight exceeds 15 meters.
- Holding an authorization of a police officer is not obligatory for this type of transport.
- An authorization is only obligatory in the transportation of hazardous materials.
- Correct answer: When the length of the vehicle plus the freight it carries exceeds 20 meters.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: When the length of the vehicle plus the freight it carries exceeds 20 meters.
What counts is the total length of the vehicle together with the load it carries, not the length of the load alone. When the total length exceeds 20 meters, you must hold an authorization from a police officer. The obligation is not limited to the transportation of hazardous materials.
