Correct answer
11 tonnes.
11 tonnes for the two-axle group. Annex IX sets this limit for a trailer or semi-trailer tandem when the axle spacing is less than 1.00 m. Do not confuse it with a single axle or a motor vehicle’s tandem. Any more restrictive technical or authorised limits applicable to the vehicle must also be observed.
