The load carried on a motorcycle that is less than 1 meter wide, may it project beyond the front or rear?
Traffic safety: Transported persons and cargo
Explanation
For motorcycles that have a **width of less than 1 meter**, the regulations state that the load **cannot protrude from the front**. However, it is allowed for the load to protrude from the **rear**, but with a maximum limit of **0.25 meters**.
This is because motorcycles, being narrower and less stable than other types of vehicles, require specific measures to ensure safety. Allowing the load to protrude from the front could negatively affect the maneuverability and stability of the motorcycle, increasing the risk of accidents. On the other hand, allowing a small protrusion from the rear, up to 0.25 meters, is considered safe as long as the necessary precautions are taken to avoid damage or accidents.
