I'm talking about overloading of cargo.. Excess in the size and weight of the shipment, and to our knowledge is extremely hazardous and inaccurate. Courier companies are not in support of this so they provide guidelines on weight and straight height. The authorities have legislated in this respect to prevent it completely, because that might cause an accident.
Potential implications of excessive loading.
The most likely event is an accident.
Our bike has a limited load capacity. It has been studied by experts over a lengthy period of time for our safety when using it. The weight capacity is generally seen in the manufacturer's manual, it acts as an operator guide for its proper use. Excess weight, which does not correspond to the capacity of the motorcycle, can lead to uncontrollable operation.
Your brake is less able to brake than normal because of its weight. If you find yourself in an unexpected situation and you require a sudden full stop, there is a high probability that you will not be able to do this in a timely manner.
Many philosophers argue that, why then is it acceptable to have a backride. It is said that an adult weighs an average of 50 - 60 kilograms, That's a lot to handle on a motorcycle.
There's a difference between man and thing. Because man is in control of his equilibrium. Nevertheless, things do not have. The 50 or 60 kilos of cargo when you lean or turn, Chances are you won't be able to pull back because all the forces will move to where you turned your handlebars.
If your shipment does not correspond to the size. It may get struck by vehicles around you. And when it does, your balance will be lost and you will end up in a crash. Keep in mind that a motorcycle only has two wheels and needs a strong balance.
You can get everyone else involved. When you have an accident in an overcrowded area or in an area where there is a lot of traffic, It is inevitable that you will be on the verge of implicating them. Remember that it is not just your head and body that will cause pain, your pocket as well. Your fund that was meant to be used for food, will be used solely to pay for your medication and damages you caused.
You're likely to be apprehended by the authorities. In the interests of our safety, there are cities that enforce their ordinances in the event of overloading. It's about preventing the possibility of accidents. Fines are no joke, so steer clear of them.
How can you tell that the cargo is overloaded?
The weight and size of the shipment or package has its own class of vehicle. Your choice of vehicle depends on the weight and dimension of your package.
Obviously, the length, height and width of the cargo is visible to the eye, it is beyond the handlebars of your bike and beyond your head when driving.
If you want to be precise, weigh it. There are portable luggage scales available at online stores. All you have to do is hook up the shipment in while you're holding the equipment and then lift it up. That way, you'll know how much cargo you're going to load.
Unsupported, Your motorcycle will not be able to hold it upright. Though it is on its side stand, it can't be able to stand on its own and as a result of excessive weight, it may fall off.
Parallel to that, You are too worried and hesitating because even your own feet can't hold it either. You know this first-hand already that you can't, knowing that struggling to balance is a sufficient basis for a concern. Don't push if you can't, your risk of having an accident is way too high.
What to do to avoid over-loading.
Learn to say no, learn to say no to your clients if you know if it does not conform to the correct guideline of size and weight. Do not regret the high fees because you will always receive less when you pay for the hospital and medications. In addition, you will make it difficult for your family because they will worry too much and stress themselves out on how will they earn a living, especially if you are the breadwinner.
Tell and remind your clients that there are guidelines to follow and this is not possible because of the risk it will pose. Don't be afraid or ashamed, you will be more ashamed when you injured and involved other people. No need to worry about being suspended, Because the courier companies are not in favor of it either, they are not going to tolerate it.
It is not wrong to aspire to large profits as long as it is in a sense that you will not be harmed. It's better to have a not-so-high income than having a great deal of money but risking your life too much. Your family will be much happier if they see you smiling as they greet you at the door of your house than a phone call with bad news that could have been avoided.
