Along with clearance, length of overhangs affects the approach and departure angles, which measure the vehicle's ability to overcome steep obstacles and rough terrain.The longer the front overhang, the smaller is the approach angle, and thus lesser the car's ability to climb or descend steep ramps without damaging the front bumpers.

The first nine blocks in the solution to the single-wide block-stacking problem with the overhangs indicated. In statics, the block-stacking problem (sometimes known as The Leaning Tower of Lire (Johnson 1955), also the book-stacking problem, or a number of other similar terms) is a puzzle concerning the stacking of blocks at the edge of a table.
Overlength limits vary depending on the type and the configuration of vehicle, but the overall maximum forward distance (i.e. the length from the front of the vehicle to the centre axis of the rear axle set) is 9.5 m (31 ft 2 in), the overall maximum single vehicle length is 12.6 m (41 ft 4 in) (some buses can be longer), and the overall ...
The exceptions shall be double-stacking, minimum overhead wiring height must be 6,500 mm (21 ft 3 + 7 ⁄ 8 in) (for maximum vehicle height of 6,150 mm [20 ft 2 + 1 ⁄ 8 in]) or 6,750 mm [22 ft 1 + 3 ⁄ 4 in] (for maximum vehicle height of 6,400 mm [20 ft 11 + 15 ⁄ 16 in]).
The distance the car's body extends beyond the wheelbase at the front (front overhang) and rear (rear overhang). In car style design terms, this is the amount of body that is beyond the wheels or wheel arches. In general, the sum of the front and rear overhangs is equal to the overall length minus the wheelbase. Typically, the rear overhang is ...
