Does having an extra child in the car count as overloading?

[MacCaden]

Having an extra child in the car counts as overloading. Here is a detailed introduction to the hazards of vehicle overloading: 1. Damage to road infrastructure: Overloaded vehicles severely damage road infrastructure. Since the load of overloaded vehicles far exceeds the design capacity of roads and bridges, it leads to pavement damage, bridge fractures, and significantly shortens their service life. 2. Increased mass: Greater mass results in increased inertia, longer braking distances, and higher risks. If severely overloaded, it may cause tire blowouts, sudden deviation, brake failure, rollovers, and other accidents due to excessive tire load and deformation. 3. Increased psychological burden and stress: It is more prone to operational errors.
