Which of the following is NOT a main reason for covering cargo?
  1. To protect the cargo from the weather
  2. To protect the vehicle from paint scrapes
  3. To protect other drivers and people from spilled cargo
  4. To protect the environment
Explanation
Answer: B - The main reasons cargo is covered when in transit is to protect the cargo from the weather, to protect other drivers and pedestrians in case of a spill, and to help protect the environment. While some commercial drivers may cover their cargo to protect the paint on their vehicles, that is not a main reason for doing so. Spill protection is a requirement in many states and drivers should know the laws of the states they operate in before hauling open cargo.
