- Correct answer: Yes, it is always obligatory to mark oversize freight.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: Yes, it is always obligatory to mark oversize freight.
Oversize freight sticking out of a vehicle endangers other road users at any hour, so it must always be marked, not only during light time. The obligation applies also to a vehicle standing on the road, because oversize freight is dangerous even when the vehicle is not moving. The obligation is not limited to freight that sticks out from the rear of the vehicle.
