Correct answer
- BSí, con un panel reglamentario.Yes, with a regulation panel.
Whenever the load sticks out at the back of the vehicle (except vehicles less than 1 metre wide), it must be marked with a 50 × 50 cm panel (V-20) painted with alternating red and white diagonal stripes. The panel must be placed at the rear end of the load, so that it is always at right angles to the vehicle's axis. When the vehicle is travelling between sunset and sunrise, or in weather or environmental conditions that noticeably reduce visibility, the load must also be marked with a red light.
