Today, David is carrying a portable building which overhangs the rear of the vehicle by 2.5 metres. What does he or his company need to do before driving on a public road?

Explanation: • Give 2 days' prior notice to the police: No, this is only required when the rear projection exceeds 3.05 metres.
• Give 24 hours' notice to the police: No, notification to police, where required, is always 2 clear days.
•Attach an end marker to the front and rear of the load: No, a marker is not required at the front as the load does not overhang the front of the vehicle.
•Attach side and end markers to the load: No, side markers would not be required as the load does not overhang the side of the vehicle.
•Attach an end marker to the rear of the load: Yes, if the load overhangs the rear of the vehicle by more than 2 metres, it will require an end marker.
