The Road Traffic Act states that an abnormal vehicle may be driven on the road on condition that a permit of the appropriate category has been obtained, the conditions of the journey set out in this permit are complied with, the journey is escorted on the terms and in the manner set out in the regulations, and the driver exercises particular caution. A category V permit specifies, among other things, the route and time of the journey, and categories II-IV are issued to the entity carrying out the journey - in every case the conditions apply to you in the same way, regardless of whether the load is divisible (answer C). What is more, an abnormal vehicle must not carry loads other than indivisible ones, except for journeys on a category I permit. Leaving the designated route is a journey not in accordance with the conditions of the permit, and the law provides for a financial penalty for it.
