For answer  A 

To be able to travel on public roads, a motor vehicle must not exceed the maximum authorized total mass (MTMA) entered in its registration certificate.

For answer  B 

Gauge = length/width/height

Is prohibited the driver of the motor vehicle or tram to transport in and on the car objects whose length or width exceeds, together with the load, its dimensions.

The road legislation does not provide the prohibition to travel if the height is exceeded, it specifies only length and width. And since the gauge means length/width/height, height is not a condition for motor vehicles or trailers to be able to travel on public roads. Therefore, it is possible to travel with exceeded gauge, as long as the length and/or width is not exceeded.

However, it must be known that if the height exceeds 5 meters, it is possible to travel on the public road only based on the special authorization issued by its administrator and with the approval of the traffic police.

To be able to travel on public roads, a motor vehicle must be registered and meet the legal technical conditions.
