Show answer

Correct answer

  • BNo.No.
Explanation

No. Article 114 of the General Traffic Regulations prohibits driving with the vehicle's doors open. In addition, a goods van may only carry a load that sticks out if it is indivisible (Article 15), so leaving the doors partly open to fit the load in is not allowed.
