Correct answer
2.55 metres.
2.55 metres including the load, as the general rule. The 2.60-metre conditioned-superstructure exception concerns temperature-controlled goods transport with side walls at least 45 mm thick, including insulation; it does not cover every lorry body. Special transport is governed by its applicable conditions and authorisations.
