How can you carry a load on a trailer pulled by a passenger car?

Description

Art. 61 para. 2 pt. 2) of the Act of 20 June 1997, the Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137, as amended)

Explanation

Correct answer: The load must not disturb the steerability of the vehicle.

The load in a trailer must be distributed evenly, in accordance with Art. 61 of the Road Traffic Act, so as not to impair the stability of the vehicle or make steering difficult. The heaviest items should be placed as low as possible and close to the trailer's axle to avoid dangerous 'snaking' of the trailer while driving.
