Procedure details

The government of the Upper Palatinate is responsible for approving exemptions from the provisions of §§ 16 to 22, §§ 29, 32, 34, § 52 Para. 3, 3a and 4, § 57a StVZO and from all other provisions of Part B of the StVZO, provided that the exemptions are not applied for on the occasion of the allocation of a registration plate (approval) or the granting of an operating license and generally for buses for commercial passenger transport.

The district administrative authorities are responsible for the approval of all regulations of Part B of the StVZO, unless the government is responsible.

The approval of an exemption can be considered in order to take account of special exceptional situations that cannot be adequately taken into account if the legal provisions are applied strictly.

In the case of dimensional and weight overruns, for example, the transport of an indivisible load requires the use of a vehicle that exceeds the usual standards of the StVZO.
