Correct answer
12 metres.
12 metres. This is the general limit for motor vehicles other than buses; four axles do not increase it. The measurement includes the load, which must also comply with placement, projection and marking rules. Articulated vehicles, road trains and authorised or exempt cases have different rules and are outside this situation.
