- The rationale of the measure
- 1.1 This specification covers the requirements for vehicle models of categories 0 1 and O2 designed or adapted for operation on a public road at speeds greater than 40 kph, including new vehicle models and vehicle models that have not previously been registered or licensed in South Africa.
1.2 The requirements of this specification, in so far as the vehicle parts already incorporated are concerned, apply in respect of an incomplete vehicle supplied for further manufacture by one manufacturer to another and the entire specification applies to the vehicle after completion thereof by the last-mentioned manufacturer.
1.3 This specification does not apply to experimental vehicles or to prototype vehicles constructed or imported by the original manufacturer or importers for the purpose of testing, assessment or development, or to agricultural trailers, unless they are subsequently sold for use on a public road in South Africa.
1.4 The relevant requirements of this specification shall take effect on the dates as specified in schedule 1.
1.5 Where a South African National Standard, including an International Standard or a UN ECE regulation adopted by South Africa as a National Standard, is incorporated by reference into this specification, only the technical requirements of the specifications for the commodity, and the tests to verify compliance apply. - Coded list of objectives

- Description of the measure
- 3.6 Requirements for the stability of certain trailer/towing vehicle combinations whilst in motion
3.6.1 General
These requirements are only applicable to trailers with ball couplings as specified in 3.5.1 (a). Stability should be determined by calculation or other suitable means, or, in the case of a caravan, by verifying compliance with the metrological requirements of 4.1.2 (overall height). 4.1.3 (centre of gravity) and 4.1.4 (rear overhang).
3.6.2 Trailer configuration
The static vertical load on the ball coupling of the trailer shall be at the minimum value stated by the
manufacturer (see 3.5.2) and stability shall be checked for two conditions of loading, given as follows:
a) with the trailer at its tare fully equipped for service in accordance with the manufacturers specification but excluding all non-permanent equipment or stores; and b) with the trailer at its gross vehicle mass. the load being distributed as recommended by the manufacturer.
5 Requirements for the control of environmental interference
5.1 Suppression of radio and television interference
All components, accessories or equipment that are fitted to a trailer and that generate and radiate
electromagnetic energy shall comply with the current applicable regulations relating to interference with
communications promulgated under the Telecommunications Act, 1996 (Act 103 of 1996).
5.2 Suppression of atmospheric pollution
All engines, accessories or equipment that are fitted to a trailer and that generate smoke emissions shall comply with the current regulations promulgated under the Atmospheric Pollution Prevention Act, 1965 (Act 45 of 1965). - Reference of the measure
