What is the maximum length allowed for a combination of vehicles comprising a motor vehicle and a trailer including load?

In Germany, the maximum length allowed for a combination of vehicles, such as a motor vehicle towing a trailer, is governed by the German Road Traffic Act (StVZO). The most common maximum length permitted for such combinations is 20.75 meters, which is specified to accommodate both the vehicle and trailer, including any load. This regulation is essential for ensuring road safety and maneuverability, as longer combinations can be more challenging to control and pose risks to other road users.

It’s important to remember that specific combinations may have different limitations based on the type of vehicle, the driving license held by the operator, and whether the vehicles have been specifically approved for such use. Always verify the exact regulations applicable to your situation.
