Answer: (A)

When a load sticks out to the left side of a vehicle, you must mark that overhang so other drivers can see it. The rule sets the minimum overhang at one foot or more, and requires an amber light placed on the extreme left edge of the load. The amber color signals a side warning and helps people passing on that side judge how far the load extends, which is especially important at night or in low visibility. If the overhang is less than one foot, this specific lighting requirement does not apply. So the key point is the threshold: one foot or more triggers the amber side light on the far left of the load.
