While driving a truck, in what circumstances should you make sure that the transported cargo is properly secured?
Explanation

Correct answer: After an abrupt braking manoeuver.

Sudden braking generates significant forces that can cause a load to shift or its securing equipment to loosen, as is evident in the case of transported vehicles. To ensure their own safety and that of other road users, the driver is required to stop in a safe place and check the securing of the load after any such incident.
