Explanation

Correct answer: yes

In accordance with the provisions of the Road Traffic Act, a vehicle or a combination of vehicles with an actual gross weight exceeding 40 tonnes is classified as an abnormal load vehicle. Since the 50-tonne weight mentioned in the question exceeds this limit, operating such a vehicle on public roads requires a special permit of the appropriate category.
