Question 1520 in the bank

It is obligatory to hold two safety shoes in commercial vehicles with an all up weight that exceeds:

  1. 4,000 kg.
  2. 2,500 kg.
  3. 3,000 kg.
  4. Correct answer: 5,000 kg.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: 5,000 kg.

A commercial vehicle whose permitted all up weight exceeds 5,000 kg must carry two safety shoes (wheel chocks). They are placed under the wheels to stop a heavy vehicle from rolling while parked, especially on a slope or during a repair or wheel change. Lower weights such as 3,000 or 4,000 kg are not the threshold set for this duty.
