Correct answer
- A2 metros por delante y 3 metros por detrás.2 metres at the front and 3 metres at the back.
On vehicles used only for carrying goods that are longer than 5 metres, indivisible loads such as beams or pipes may stick out 2 metres at the front and 3 at the back (Article 15 of the General Traffic Regulations, RGC). The limit of one third at each end is for vehicles of 5 metres or less.
