Ch. 11 · Owner & Manager

Which of the following actions is NOT explicitly stated in the text as something that vehicle owners or safe-driving managers must not order drivers to do or tolerate?

[Multiple choice · Medium]

Answer: C: Overloading violations

Explanation

Items (a)-(f) of "2(5)" explicitly list "unlicensed driving," "maximum speed violations," and "drunk or alcohol-impaired driving." Item (e), however, reads "driving a vehicle in violation of loading restrictions" - the exact term "overloading violations" does not appear in the text. Therefore this is the correct answer.

Most of them are listed explicitly, but "overloading violations" is the tricky one — the text actually says "driving in violation of loading restrictions," so that exact phrase isn't there.

So it's a wording trap?

Exactly! The correct answer is "overloading violations" because that specific term doesn't appear in the law.
