What you need to know when transporting long cargo, traffic rules and transportation features.
The company Gruz-Ok (GruzOk) on its experience of transportation, shares the points that you need to pay attention to when transporting long cargo , the dimensions of which exceed the permissible values in length.
Legally, the rules put more emphasis on overload, exceeding the permissible load on the awn. As for the transportation of long cargo , pay attention to the fact that protruding more than a meter in front or behind of the vehicle (dimensions of the vehicle, meaning the extreme point of the body, not the frame or feet) must be marked with a special sign. They also stipulate that the length of the road train cannot exceed twenty meters. Some sources indicate that the length of the cargo outside the dimensions of the car should be less than two meters, but there is no such information in the traffic rules.
Moments that may affect the application of punishment to the driver:
- The protruding part of the cargo creates an emergency situation, violates stability.
- The load is not securely secured, or makes it difficult to control the vehicle (including restricting the view).
- The protruding parts of the load cover the registration number or light signals (brake light, direction change signal).
- Bulky cargo pollutes the environment or creates significant noise.
