Read the reviewed summary
Road pavement wear is strongly influenced by the load on each axle. Heavy goods vehicles impose much greater loads than cars or motorcycles, so their weight and its distribution need particular control. Stay within all axle and total limits; do not treat the road surface as able to absorb any load without damage.
