Which commercial road transport vehicle should be fitted with a tachograph?
Explanation
Correct answer: Vehicle of gross weight rating 2800 kg, pulling a trailer of gross weight 750kg.
The obligation to use a tachograph for the commercial carriage of goods by road applies to vehicles or combinations of vehicles whose maximum authorised mass (MAM) exceeds 3.5 tonnes. In the given case, the sum of the maximum authorised mass of the vehicle (2800 kg) and the trailer (750 kg) is 3550 kg. Since this value exceeds 3.5 t, such a combination of vehicles must be equipped with a tachograph.
