Is it allowed for the load of a car to protrude from the sides?
Traffic safety: Transported persons and cargo
Explanation
The **load of a passenger car** (vehicle that transports passengers) **cannot protrude from the sides**. This is because, according to the regulations, the load in vehicles that also transport people can only protrude from the rear, and only under certain conditions.
- **It is not allowed** for the load to protrude from the front or the sides of the vehicle.
- The load can protrude from the rear, but only if it meets certain specific characteristics and limits. For example, if the load can be divided, it can protrude a maximum of 10% of the vehicle's length. If it cannot be divided, it can protrude a maximum of 15%.
These restrictions are designed to **ensure safety** and prevent accidents or damage to other vehicles and people.
