When driving a passenger car, is the load allowed to extend forward beyond the vehicle structure?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

As a general rule, in vehicles not exclusively intended for the transport of goods (such as passenger cars), the load can never extend from the front nor the sides. Traffic regulations establish that in this type of vehicle, the load can only extend from the rear, subject to specific limits: up to 10% of the vehicle's length if the load is divisible, or 15% if it is indivisible, and must be marked with the V-20 panel. Therefore, any option suggesting it can extend forward is incorrect.
