Traffic safety: Transported persons and cargo
Explanation
In vehicles that have a **width of less than one meter**, such as motorcycles, there are specific restrictions on how much the load can protrude. The load can protrude **0.25 meters on each side** of the vehicle. However, in the case of the question, it is mentioned that the load cannot protrude **0.5 meters on both sides of the vehicle's longitudinal axis**. This is correct because the longitudinal axis refers to the central line of the vehicle, and by allowing the load to protrude 0.5 meters in total (0.25 meters on each side), it complies with the regulations for vehicles less than one meter wide.
Therefore, the correct answer is that the load cannot protrude more than **0.5 meters in total** on both sides of the vehicle's longitudinal axis.
