C1Difficulty 3/5

If you're driving unladen with a van whose maximum authorised mass (MAM) is four tonnes, will you be able to enter a road that has this sign at its entrance?

If you're driving unladen with a van whose maximum authorised mass (MAM) is four tonnes, will you be able to enter a road that has this sign at its entrance?

Correct answer

Yes, because its maximum authorised mass does not exceed the 5.5 tonnes shown on the sign.

The pictured R-107 sign prohibits goods vehicles whose maximum authorised mass exceeds 5.5 tonnes. The van has a maximum authorised mass of 4 tonnes, so it may enter. The sign also applies to vans and is based on maximum authorised mass, not the load currently carried.
