BDifficulty 2/5

You add 300 kg of properly secured load within the vehicle’s limits. What braking precaution should you take?

Correct answer

Anticipate braking and adapt driving to the load.

Anticipate braking and adapt speed and following distance to the loaded vehicle. Load can increase the distance needed to brake; speed, brakes, tyres and grip also matter. The 300 kg alone cannot determine a precise distance, and mass is not the only factor. A passenger’s age does not replace assessment of actual load.
