Except for the carriage of a driver or attendant, the weight of a working vehicle or trailer, including all equipment normally used with it, is called:
A
Gross vehicle weight
B
Weight with goods
C
Weight without goods
D
Payload
Correct Option:
C
Explanation
The wording describes unladen weight: the weight of a vehicle or trailer including the equipment ordinarily used with it while working, but excluding the driver or attendant and, fundamentally, excluding the carried load. Among the options, that corresponds to “weight without goods.” Gross vehicle weight is different—it includes the vehicle plus its permissible load—while payload refers to the load-carrying capacity itself.
