Correct answer

  • ANo, porque los turismos no están destinados exclusivamente al transporte de mercancías.No, because cars are not intended exclusively for carrying goods.
Explanation

No. On vehicles not intended exclusively for carrying goods, such as cars, the load may only stick out at the rear, by up to 10% of the vehicle's length, or 15% if it is indivisible (Article 15 of the General Traffic Regulations). Nothing may stick out at the front.
