Which of the following are considered to be "road vehicles" that can be carried on Ro-Ro vessels?

Question 1 of 27070

Which of the following are considered to be "road vehicles" that can be carried on Ro-Ro vessels?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Ro-Ro vessels (roll-on/roll-off) and how cargo is moved on and off by wheels • IMO/ICS definitions of road vehicles used in Ro-Ro cargo context (trucks, trailers, combinations) • Difference between a single vehicle and a combination vehicle (tractor + trailer, road train, articulated units)

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: In Ro-Ro operations, what kinds of wheeled units commonly drive or are towed on board ferries and Ro-Ro ships? • Which of these options are actually used on highways as recognized vehicle types, not just parts of a vehicle? • Is a semi-trailer by itself normally able to move on the road, or is it part of a larger road vehicle combination?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify how road vehicle is defined in Ro-Ro/IMO cargo guidelines (it includes powered vehicles and certain towed units). • Check whether an articulated road train and a road train are both recognized types of highway vehicle combinations. • Confirm whether a semi-trailer is treated as a road vehicle when carried on Ro-Ro ships, even though it needs a tractor unit to move on public roads.
