Your driving style and speed must be adjusted
according to the circumstances. Especially when
carrying heavy loads, your speed must be
reduced adequately.

vere or possibly fatal illness to people or
animals.

gage higher than the seatbacks. In a sudden
stop or collision, unsecured luggage could
cause personal injury.

fully open, and have the vehicle inspected
immediately.
