Correct answer
18 tonnes.
18 tonnes. This is the category’s general limit, not every lorry’s individual MAM: the vehicle’s authorisation and technical capacity and its axle limits also apply. Increases or specific regimes may exist and are excluded from this question. Two axles do not permit using limits for other categories or combinations.
