In Norwegian traffic signs and road markings (Skiltforskriften), what does sign 322 showing an axle and two wheels with a weight limit (e.g. 8 t) indicate (Aksellastgrense)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: B. Single axle loads exceeding 8 tonnes prohibited

  1. Step 1: Sign 322 (Aksellastgrense) prohibits vehicles where the load on any single axle exceeds the posted tonnage, protecting weaker bridges and road foundations. Answer: Single axle loads exceeding 8 tonnes prohibited. Why not the others: the alternative options do not correctly describe the statutory meaning under the Norwegian Sign Regulations (Skiltforskriften).
