Answer is Wrong!
The maximum speed of shunting of a petrol tank wagon is 8 kmph. This is because petrol is a highly flammable liquid and any sudden movement or impact could cause it to ignite. Shunting at a speed of 8 kmph or less minimizes the risk of fire or explosion.
Option A: 15 kmph is too fast and could cause the petrol to ignite.
Option B: 8 kmph is the safe speed for shunting a petrol tank wagon.
Option C: 2 kmph is too slow and could cause delays in the movement of trains.
Option D: 5 kmph is too fast and could cause the petrol to ignite.
