Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

According to Annex II of the General Vehicle Regulations, the flatbed is the vehicle intended for the transport of goods on a flat surface without side protections. The open-box vehicle carries the goods in a receptacle open at the top, with fixed or folding sides, so it does have side protections. And the low-loader is the vehicle whose loading platform has a very low height, which says nothing about its lacking sides. Therefore, a flat surface without sides corresponds to the flatbed.
