1 Answers
A 7-seater business vehicle can accommodate seven people including the driver. Carrying more than seven people is considered overloading. Below is relevant information about overloading: 1. Introduction: Overloading refers to a transport vehicle carrying a load that exceeds its maximum permitted limit. Freight overloading typically means the cargo exceeds the loading capacity of the freight vehicle. 2. Penalties for overloading: Any vehicle carrying more than 20% of its approved capacity is considered overloaded and will be penalized according to new traffic regulations. The new regulations have increased penalty points for serious traffic violations involving overloading of key vehicle types. Driving a commercial passenger vehicle with more than 20% over the approved capacity will result in 12 penalty points.
