If cargo protrudes 1.2 m beyond the rear end of the vehicle, must it be marked during daylight hours with the “Oversized Cargo” identification sign and, at night or under conditions of insufficient visibility, additionally with a white light or reflector at the front and a red light or reflector at the rear?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes.

Explanation

A load must carry the "Oversized Cargo" sign by day (and white lights or reflectors in front and red ones behind in the dark) if it sticks out more than 1 m at the front or rear. A rear overhang of 1.2 m is more than 1 m, so yes (Rules, point 162).
