How far beyond the fender line on the right side can loads extend for passenger vehicles?

  1. 4 inches

  2. 6 inches

  3. 8 inches

  4. 10 inches

The correct answer is: 6 inches

For passenger vehicles, loads can extend up to 6 inches beyond the fender line on the right side. This regulation is in place to ensure safety and maintain the vehicle's stability while driving. Loads extending beyond this limit can pose hazards to the driver and other road users, as they may interfere with the normal operation of the vehicle and could lead to accidents. The choice of 6 inches balances practicality for carrying additional items with the need for safe vehicle operation. This limitation helps to ensure that the vehicle remains within a reasonable width for road and lane usage while allowing for some flexibility in load design. Other potential answers, like 4, 8, or 10 inches, do not align with standard regulations that aim to enhance safety and vehicular control.
