Correct answer
- AQue vaya colocado y sujeto de manera que no afecte a la estabilidad de la motocicleta.That it is placed and secured so that it does not affect the motorcycle's stability.
Explanation
Under Article 14 of the General Traffic Regulations, the load must be arranged and secured so that it cannot fall, shift dangerously or affect the vehicle's stability. On a motorcycle this is especially important, because badly placed luggage throws it off balance.
