Practice question
What must a truck driver do when cargo consists of high, top-heavy machinery prone to tipping (Kippgefahr)?
- Calculate only the sliding risk because a restraint sufficient against sliding also proves tipping stability
- Use top-over lashings at maximum hand force without checking whether they provide enough anti-tipping moment
- Attach restraints to convenient machine parts without confirming that they are approved lashing points
- Use the cargo and vehicle data to assess sliding and tipping, follow an approved load-securing plan, and use rated blocking and direct restraints at manufacturer-approved points
Answer: D — Use the cargo and vehicle data to assess sliding and tipping, follow an approved load-securing plan, and use rated blocking and direct restraints at manufacturer-approved points
