Question 292 in the bank

What is the maximum cargo height, from the road’s surface, that is allowed to be transported in a vehicle of an overall permissible weight of 8000kg – 15,000kg?

  1. Correct answer: Four meters.
  2. 4.80 meters.
  3. There is no height limit.
  4. Three meters.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: Four meters.

For a vehicle with an overall permissible weight of 8,000 to 15,000 kg, the cargo may reach a maximum of four meters, measured from the road surface and not from the cargo bed. The limit protects bridges, tunnels and overhead cables and keeps the vehicle stable. So the claim that there is no height limit is wrong, and 4.80 meters is too high for this vehicle.
