Question 1302 in the bank

A freight transporting vehicle shall be marked with a “Caution, wide load” sign when:

  1. The freight width is more than 1.80 meters.
  2. Correct answer: The freight width is more than 2.50 meters.
  3. The freight width is more than 2.10 meters.
  4. The freight width is less than 2.40 meters.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: The freight width is more than 2.50 meters.

The “Caution, wide load” sign is required when the freight is more than 2.50 meters wide, which is about the normal maximum width of a road vehicle. A load wider than that extends beyond what other drivers expect, so they must be warned in advance. Widths of 1.80 or 2.10 meters are still within the normal range and do not need the sign.
