When transporting goods in heavy vehicles, it is important to respect:
When transporting goods in heavy vehicles, it is essential to respect the legally established gross weight limits for the vehicle. Gross weight represents the maximum authorized total weight, encompassing the unladen weight (weight of the empty vehicle) and the payload, thus ensuring road safety and the integrity of infrastructures. The 3500 kg limit refers to the boundary between light and heavy vehicles, and is not the maximum limit for heavy vehicles, which by definition exceed this value. In turn, unladen weight is the weight of the vehicle without cargo, so the limit to be respected during the transport of goods is the total gross weight and not the unladen weight in isolation.
