Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The maximum width generally authorized for vehicles and their load is 2.55 meters (2.60 meters on vehicles with superstructures fitted for temperature-controlled transport). Although the General Traffic Regulations allow indivisible loads to protrude up to 0.40 meters on each side on vehicles intended for the transport of goods, they categorically establish that the resulting total width must never exceed 2.55 meters. Consequently, if the truck's body already reaches that maximum dimension, the load must not protrude laterally at all.
