What is the maximum permitted height (together with freight) of a vehicle with an all up weight of 15,000 kg or less?
- 3.5 meters, provided that it is in one unit.
- Up to 4.80 meters.
- Correct answer: 4 meters.
- Up to 4.40 meters.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: 4 meters.
A vehicle with an all up weight of 15,000 kg or less may be at most 4 meters high together with its freight, measured from the road surface to the highest point of the vehicle or load. The limit protects bridges, tunnels, power lines and overhead signs from being struck. The higher figures in the other options are not allowed for such a vehicle.
