In Germany, 2% over is already a fine, for the driver and the operator

EU road-weight enforcement is per-country and unforgiving: Germany fines from as little as 2% over the permitted weight, with driver and operator (Halter) both liable; France charges per excess tonne. The limits come from Directive 96/53/EC. LoadingMCP checks the packed load against those axle-group and gross ceilings at plan time, using the real cargo positions.

• Axle-group loads checked against 96/53/EC Annex I ceilings (steer 7.5 t, single 10 t, drive 11.5 t, tandem 19 t, tri-axle 24 t).
• Gross 40 t / 44 t-intermodal checked per vehicle and per drayage combination.
