Must a goods trailer have lateral protection when the applicable technical regulations require that device for that vehicle?

Correct answer

Yes

Yes. Article 11.17 of the General Vehicle Regulations requires lateral protection for goods vehicles, including trailers and semi-trailers, when required by the regulations referenced in Annex I. The duty depends on technical scope, category and applicable exceptions: it cannot be stated that every trailer of any type and mass must have it. It is not a device reserved for passenger transport.
