What is regulated by the road haulage act?

Your answer is correct. The Road Haulage Act (Güterkraftverkehrsgesetz) regulates commercial transport of goods and goods transport against payment. This means that any transport of goods for profit, such as deliveries by trucking companies, falls under this law to ensure safety, fair competition, and legal compliance. Private goods transport, on the other hand, where you transport your own items without payment, is not regulated by this act. Understanding this distinction helps you identify when specific rules and permits apply in commercial haulage.
