1. Yes — but only after you have verified that no train or other rail vehicle is approaching the level crossing.

2. No — you may not proceed.

You should avoid accelerating abruptly from a standstill because:

To drive economically and sensibly, begin moving smoothly and progressively. Reduce your speed gradually within your capabilities, and avoid unnecessary abrupt maneuvers unless they are essential (for example, emergency braking to avoid an unexpected obstacle). When you accelerate suddenly from a standstill, tyres experience increased wear during rotation.

1. Tires wear out faster.

2. It causes a significant increase in environmental pollution.

3. Squealing tyres and increased engine noise can disturb others.

When must the driver begin displaying the warning signal?

RTR 86. Warning signals must be given to other road users sufficiently in advance of a maneuver (including braking associated with the maneuver) and must be discontinued immediately after the maneuver. Hand signals may be ceased before the maneuver begins. JB

1. Before the 'Stop line' road sign and/or before the marked stop line.

2. So as not to obstruct vehicular traffic.

3. So as not to obstruct pedestrian traffic.

What should you do if road signs contradict the horizontal road markings?

RTR 8. In the Republic of Lithuania, traffic may be regulated only by road signs listed in Annex 1 to the Rules, by variable message signs treated as road signs (examples are given in Annex 2), by road markings specified in Annex 3, by traffic lights, and by signals from traffic officers, as provided for in these Rules and other legal acts governing traffic control. If the requirements of a road sign conflict with those of a road marking, the road sign must be obeyed. When variable message signs are in use, their indications must be followed. Signals given by traffic officers take precedence over traffic lights, road signs, road markings, and the provisions of these Rules. Road users must comply with the signs that apply to them.

1. You should follow the road signs.

2. You should follow the horizontal road markings.

What is the maximum permitted blood alcohol concentration (in ‰) for a driver with one year of driving experience operating a passenger car?

Under amendments to the Law on Road Traffic Safety that took effect on 1 January 2015, novice drivers (those with less than two years' driving experience) are considered intoxicated if the alcohol concentration in their breath or bodily fluids exceeds 0. LAW ON ROAD TRAFFIC SAFETY, Article 2, clause 43 defines 'condition under the influence of alcohol' as the state when the concentration of ethyl alcohol in a biological medium of the body (breath, blood, urine, saliva, or other bodily fluids) exceeds the statutory permissible limit. The general maximum permitted concentration of ethyl alcohol in breath, blood, urine, saliva, or other bodily fluids while driving is 0.4 per mille. However, novice drivers, taxi drivers, drivers of mopeds, motorcycles, tricycles, light quadricycles, quadricycles, powerful quadricycles, drivers of vehicles with a maximum permissible mass exceeding 3.5 tonnes or with more than nine seats, and drivers carrying dangerous goods are considered intoxicated when the ethyl alcohol concentration in their breath, blood, urine, saliva, or other bodily fluids is more than 0 per mille.

What should the driver do first to stop a braking car from skidding?

If the vehicle begins to slide while braking, you must stop braking. For example, if you brake suddenly and lock the wheels before a turn, even after steering into the desired direction the car will continue moving in its previous direction (straight), which can cause you to leave the road or collide with an obstacle. Therefore, in this situation you must consciously release the brakes — a maneuver that can be especially difficult for an inexperienced driver. JB

1. Release the clutch and the brake pedal.

2. Release the brake pedal.

3. Increase vehicle speed.

What is the minimum allowable winter tread depth for a passenger car tyre?

Passenger car tyre tread depth must be at least 1.6 mm in general and 3.0 mm during the winter period.

M1 category — 1.6 mm (from November 10 to March 31 — 3.0 mm); JB

1. 1.6 mm.

2. 2.0 mm.

3. 3.0 mm.

What should you do when approaching the pedestrian crossing?

Stationary vehicles positioned before a pedestrian crossing restrict visibility. Drivers must exercise extra caution and may continue only after confirming that no pedestrians entitled to right of way are at the crossing. (RTR 30.) When approaching an uncontrolled pedestrian crossing, a driver must reduce speed or stop before the crossing to give way to pedestrians who have already entered any lane, are walking in any lane, or were standing immediately at the carriageway edge waiting to step into a lane in the direction of the vehicle’s travel—or into any lane on a road with one lane in each direction. Drivers must be especially careful at night, in poor visibility, or whenever the crossing is not clearly visible from the driver’s position, and must ensure there are no pedestrians who should be given way.

1. You should reduce your speed.

2. If necessary to verify that no pedestrians are present, you will stop before the crossing.

3. You will pass the stationary vehicle at the permitted speed because you do not see any pedestrians on the crossing.

What should guide road users' behaviour?

4. Mutual respect and safety.

In what order will the vehicles pass through the intersection?

The yellow vehicle goes first because it is the only one without a vehicle to its right obstructing its path. Next comes the green vehicle, and last is the red vehicle. RTR 155. At an uncontrolled intersection, drivers must yield to vehicles approaching from the right when their trajectories intersect.

1. The yellow vehicle first, followed by the green vehicle, and finally the red vehicle.

2. The green vehicle first, then the red vehicle, and finally the yellow vehicle.

3. The red and yellow vehicles together first, followed by the green vehicle.

4. The green vehicle first, then the red and yellow vehicles together.

What should you do if a vehicle behind you is dazzling you with its lights?

If bright headlights are reflected in your rearview mirror, in addition to the measures listed in Paragraph 96 you can quickly activate the mirror's anti‑dazzle setting by flipping the switch at its base (if fitted). This engages the automatic dimming function and reduces glare. According to RTR 96, a dazzled driver must turn on the hazard warning lights, reduce speed without changing direction, and stop if necessary.

1. You will look away.

2. If possible, activate the rearview mirror's automatic dimming function.

3. You will turn on your hazard warning lights.

4. You will reduce speed and stop if necessary.

What must the driver of a vehicle do before starting to drive, before stopping, before changing lanes, before turning right or left, and before making a U-turn?

RTR 82. A driver must indicate intended manoeuvres by using the vehicle's left or right turn indicators, or by arm signals if the indicators are unavailable or inoperative. 82.1. Signals must be given before starting to move and before stopping. RTR 86. Warning signals must be given to other road users with sufficient advance notice before the manoeuvre (including any braking related to the manoeuvre) and must be discontinued immediately after the manoeuvre (hand signals may be stopped before the manoeuvre is completed). Signals must be given in a way that does not mislead other road users. Turn indicators are not used when entering a roundabout where traffic circulates in a circle. JB

1. Signal in advance using the appropriate turn indicator.

2. Check mirrors and glance over your shoulder to ensure the manoeuvre will not endanger or obstruct other road users.

3. Sound the horn briefly.
