Maximum speeds permitted for vehicles in Germany
Carrying persons in the living area of the vehicle while it is moving is principally allowed according to German traffic
regulations. However, these persons may only use the seats equipped with seat belts. Seats not equipped with seat
belts must not be used when moving. Persons facing forwards in the living area of the vehicle must wear the three-
point seat belts. Persons facing backwards in the living area of the vehicle must also wear seat belts. For journeys
abroad, the regulations in the specific country are to be observed. We recommend always wearing the safety belts.
Due to the vehicle height you need to be aware of the vehicle’s higher vulnerability to side winds during the journey.
When loading the vehicle, pay attention to the permissible maximum laden mass and the permissible axle loads
(see registration certificate (vehicle documents).
Distribute the payload evenly throughout the vehicle (see section “4.3 Loading the vehicle”).
During the journey all seats must be turned to face the direction of travel and locked in place.
