Correct answer
No, it exceeds its maximum authorised mass.
No. MAM is the maximum authorised mass of the loaded vehicle; it is compared with total mass including the vehicle, occupants and load, not cargo weight alone. Also respect axle limits and other technical conditions. Excess mass can impair braking and stability; driving slowly or carrying goods does not authorise it. Compliance reduces risk but does not by itself guarantee no crash.
