Manitoba Class 3 Drivers Licence Practice Test

What is the maximum permissible combination length of a vehicle with a trailer, depending on the trailer's size?

1. 21 meters

2. 22 meters

3. 23 meters

4. 24 meters

The correct answer is: 23 meters

A common misconception is that the maximum permissible combination length of a vehicle with a trailer is 22 meters, as some countries have this as their limit. However, the correct answer is 23 meters, as this is the maximum length allowed by many international regulations such as those set by the European Union and the United States. Option A (21 meters) is too short and would not allow for a longer trailer to be attached. Option B (22 meters) may be true for certain countries, but it is not the universally accepted limit. Option D (24 meters) is too long and would exceed most countries' regulations. Option C (23 meters) is the most accurate and commonly used limit for the maximum permissible combination length of a vehicle with a trailer.
