Can a cargo cause a truck to exceed the maximum permissible capacity of the vehicle?

Explanation

Correct answer: No.

The weight of the transported load must not exceed the vehicle's permissible payload, as specified in the registration certificate. Exceeding this value is prohibited because it leads to exceeding the permissible gross vehicle weight, which endangers road safety and constitutes an offence.
