For what reason would a load cover be rejected?

A load cover is designed to protect the cargo from shifting during transport, as well as to keep it secure and shield it from the elements. For a load cover to pass inspection, it must be securely attached to the vehicle to prevent it from blowing off or causing a hazard on the road. If a load cover is not securely attached, it poses a significant safety risk; it can detach and create debris, endangering other road users or resulting in the loss of cargo. This requirement is crucial for maintaining load integrity and ensuring compliance with transportation safety regulations.

Other factors, such as the weight limit, color, and labeling, may be important in specific contexts but do not directly impact the safety and security of the load in the same way that a securely attached load cover does.
