To which type of trucks is the no overtaking for trucks sign addressed?
Signage: Vertical signs
Explanation
The **no overtaking for trucks** sign is specifically aimed at those trucks with a **Maximum Authorized Mass (MAM) exceeding 3500 kg**. This means that trucks capable of carrying loads exceeding this weight cannot overtake other vehicles, except for two-wheeled motorcycles, as long as they do not invade the opposite lane.

This restriction is established to improve road safety, as heavier trucks require more time and space to safely perform overtaking maneuvers. Therefore, the sign is designed for trucks with a MAM exceeding 3500 kg, and not for those with a MAM over 2000 kg or that are more than 10 meters long.
