Correct answer
- ANo, porque está prohibido.No, because it is prohibited.
Explanation
A load may never stick out at the sides or the front. It may stick out at the back, but only by a maximum of 15% of the vehicle's length if the load is indivisible. If the load is divisible, it may only stick out by 10% of the vehicle's total length.
