Which statement about enforcing and limiting cargo loads is correct?
The load-related powers of the Commissioner of a Provincial Police Agency are split between Article 39(6) (limits on passengers, load weight and load volume) and Article 39-2 (requesting load measurement data) of the Road Traffic Act. Watch out for statements that narrow those powers or deny the duty to provide data.
Answer: ④
Explanation
Under Article 39-2(1) of the Road Traffic Act, the provincial police commissioner may request load measurement data from the road management authority (including the Korea Expressway Corporation) to check for violations of load weight and size standards, and under paragraph (2) the authority must provide it unless there is a special reason. Article 39(6) also allows the commissioner, when needed, to limit not only the number of passengers but also load weight and load size.
