Question 1419 in the bank

On which vehicles is it permitted to carry a freight container longer than 610 cm?

  1. Trailers or semi-trailers with an all up weight of up to 14,000 kg.
  2. Commercial vehicles with an all up weight that exceeds 10,000 kg.
  3. Correct answer: On a semi-trailer only and according to the provisions of the vehicle’s registration document.
  4. Only vehicles with an all up weight exceeding 19,000 kg.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: On a semi-trailer only and according to the provisions of the vehicle’s registration document.

A freight container longer than 610 cm may be carried only on a semi-trailer, and only according to the vehicle's registration document. A high all up weight is not enough to permit the carriage, so a heavy commercial vehicle or another vehicle with a large all up weight does not qualify. A trailer does not qualify either.

Topic: Rules and regulations. The bank marks it for these classes: Heavy truck (C).
