If the load protrudes from the rear of a passenger car, is it mandatory to signal it?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Yes, it is mandatory at all times. According to the General Traffic Regulations, any load protruding from the rear of a passenger car must be signaled to warn other drivers and prevent accidents. During the day and with good visibility, the V-20 panel (diagonal red and white stripes) must be placed at the rear end of the load. If driving between sunset and sunrise, or under weather conditions that reduce visibility, a red light must be placed at the rear in addition to the V-20 panel. Therefore, signaling is necessary both day and night.
