Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The General Vehicle Regulations (Annex XII) oblige motor vehicles intended for the transport of goods of more than 3,500 kg of maximum authorized mass (MAM), such as this 5,000 kg truck, to carry: The V-16 hazard warning light device, which makes it possible to warn of a stoppage or a hazard on the road without standing on the roadway. A high-visibility reflective vest, which the driver puts on when getting out of the vehicle on an interurban road. Approved fire-extinguishing equipment, suitable and in working condition. The extinguisher, the V-16 and the vest are therefore the required equipment. Carrying only an extinguisher and a spare wheel with its tools is insufficient, because the V-16 and the vest are missing, and because a spare wheel is required for passenger cars and for goods vehicles of up to 3,500 kg, not for those of more than 3,500 kg. A vest and a set of spare bulbs with their tools is also insufficient: the V-16 and the extinguisher are missing, and the set of bulbs is not among the accessories required by Annex XII.
