Correct answer

  • BNo.No.
Explanation

As a general rule, the load may not stick out beyond the vehicle's outline seen from above. On vehicles not used only for carrying goods, it may only stick out at the back, by 10 %, or 15 % if it is indivisible, never at the front (Article 15 of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC)).
