A car is deemed to be overloaded if its weight exceeds its official Gross Vehicle Weight. The same penalty applies if a car without two wing mirrors is carrying items that block the view out of the rear window.<\/p>\n

When you overload a vehicle it puts tons of strain on it. The tires can wear out quickly as well as overheat. Extra strain means the engine is also working harder to make the vehicle move. Engine damage is extremely costly and can leave you with a broken-down vehicle on the side of the road.<\/p>\n

The heavier the vehicle, the more the momentum and kinetic energy of the vehicle will be. This decreases the vehicle’s ability to stop quickly and will cause wear and tear on the brakes as well as on tires that could have lasting negative effects.<\/p>\n

Exceeding the car weight will make the vehicle unsafe to drive. And it will damage it. Being overweight seriously reduces braking, acceleration, handling, and suspension.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Packing a car inside and out adds a lot of weight to the vehicle, which means the car’s engine and tires have to do more work. In addition to being heavy, items on top of your car increase wind resistance. Both the weight and the drag will lower your engine’s efficiency.<\/p>\n
