CDifficulty 3/5

A lorry 7 metres long with a maximum authorised mass of 7,500 kilograms — must it carry a parking light?

Correct answer

No.

No. For motor vehicles covered by the general rule, parking lights are optional when length does not exceed 6 metres and width does not exceed 2 metres: both equality boundaries are included. They are prohibited if both conditions are not met. This lorry is 7 metres long, so it cannot carry parking lights even if its width is less than 2 metres. Parking lights are a separate device and must not be confused with position lights.
