On a truck, how far may a divisible load protrude beyond the footprint of the vehicle as a general rule?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The General Traffic Regulations establish that, as a general rule, the load carried on a vehicle must not protrude beyond its footprint. The possibility of the goods protruding at the front, rear or sides is reserved exclusively for indivisible loads (those that cannot be divided without unnecessary cost or risk of damage). Consequently, since this is a divisible load, it is required to be fitted within the dimensions of the truck and nothing may protrude.
