Correct answer

  • CUn quince por cien de la longitud del vehículo.Fifteen per cent of the vehicle's length.
Explanation

In vehicles not designed exclusively for carrying goods, the load may not stick out at all at the front. At the back it may stick out by 10% of the vehicle's length if the load is divisible, or 15% of the vehicle's length if it is indivisible.
