Can a truck that is 40 centimeters over-length go on the highway?

Trucks that are 40 centimeters over-length cannot go on the highway. The maximum allowed length for cargo on trucks should not exceed the length of the cargo compartment, meaning the cargo must fit within the compartment. Exceeding the compartment length is considered over-length. According to the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China, the load of a motor vehicle must not exceed the approved load capacity specified in the vehicle's registration certificate. The length and width of the load must not exceed the dimensions of the cargo compartment, and the cargo must not spill or scatter during transport. A truck (wagon) is a commercial vehicle primarily designed and equipped for transporting goods. It has a larger load capacity than ordinary flatbed vehicles, greater self-weight, and more axles to comply with the allowable axle load and load per meter restrictions on the road.
