Correct answer: Only while it sits on the shipper's, carrier's, or consignee's property.
Answer options
- AOnly when the person is a close friend or relative whom you trust
- BOnly while it sits on the shipper's, carrier's, or consignee's property Correct
- COnly at night, when you are too tired to keep watching it yourself
Why
You may hand over the job of watching your parked vehicle only when it is on premises belonging to the shipper, the carrier, or the consignee (the business receiving the load). Being tired or trusting the other person does not create an exception.
