Warning sign overlength Spain
In Spain, a warning sign is required on the bicycle carrier or in case of oversized loads. Show more
Product details
A warning sign is mandatory when the load exceeds the vehicle's length at the rear and serves to indicate overhanging loads and cargo, such as bicycle carriers, surfboards, etc.
The load extending at the rear must be marked with a reflective red and white striped warning sign measuring 50 x 50 cm (3 red stripes and 3 white stripes). This warning sign is specific to Spain. The signs recognized for the EU and Italy are not valid. This rule also applies to cars and motorhomes that transport bicycles at the rear. An overhanging load is only allowed at the rear and must not exceed 10% of the vehicle length.
The regulation also applies if you are merely passing through the country and it is not your actual travel destination. The obligation for warning signs on protruding loads also applies to bicycle carriers with rear and brake lights, as the bicycle carrier extends beyond the total length registered in the vehicle registration.
