An agricultural tractor without a trailer should be marked with:
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
C. a triangular reflecting marking board with the tip of the triangle pointing upwards.
Explanation
In the photo there is a red agricultural tractor with a cab, seen from the rear and from the side, without a trailer, with a rear linkage for attaching implements. A tractor without a trailer is marked with a triangular warning plate for slow-moving vehicles, with the tip of the triangle pointing upwards - answer C.
The rules on the technical conditions of vehicles require an agricultural tractor to be marked with a triangular warning plate for slow-moving vehicles, placed at the rear, perpendicular to the axis of the vehicle and to the roadway, with the tip pointing upwards. The lower edge of the plate should be at least 500 mm above the roadway, and the upper tip no higher than 1500 mm; if the design does not allow this, 2500 mm is allowed. A rear triangular reflector (answer A) is mandatory equipment of a trailer, not a marking for a slow-moving vehicle. A plate with its tip pointing downwards (answer B) is placed incorrectly. In a vehicle combination, the plate is carried by the last vehicle, so when you drive without a trailer, it must be on the tractor.
