According to the Road Traffic Rules (RTR 73.3), a flashing green light permits traffic to proceed but indicates that the green phase is ending and that a prohibitive signal will soon appear. Drivers who try to speed through the intersection — by accelerating or overtaking — take unnecessary risks and may cause an accident. Other drivers may brake suddenly; therefore, to pass the intersection safely while the green light is flashing, drivers must ensure their actions will not obstruct other vehicles and must consider the behavior of drivers behind them, since sudden braking can also lead to collisions. Anticipating the need to stop before the intersection, drivers should reduce their speed.

The option "More than 1 meter long" is incorrect because the RTR do not specify any marking requirement based on the cart's length. Under RTR 41: pedestrians moving along an unlit hard shoulder or along the edge of the carriageway, or standing there during hours of darkness or when visibility is poor, must carry a torch visible to other road users, wear a high-visibility vest, or carry a reflector visible to other road users. A pulled or pushed handcart wider than 1 m must have reflectors affixed on its left side: a white reflector at the front and a red reflector at the rear. JB

RTR 56. Only bicycles equipped with functioning brakes and a working audible warning device may be ridden on the road. A bicycle must have a red rear reflector and orange reflectors or other reflective elements fixed to the spokes on both sides of each wheel. During hours of darkness or when visibility is poor, a bicycle ridden on the road must have white front and red rear lights switched on. The cyclist must wear a reflective vest or have other reflective accessories attached to clothing in a location clearly visible to other road users. JB

According to the Lithuanian Road Administration, in 2017, 68.83 percent of all traffic offenders were drivers. A slippery road is one of the traffic safety hazards, however, drivers can take into account the conditions, choose a safe driving speed and avoid a road accident.

Explanation of terms: • To brake – press the brake pedal; the car slows down rapidly and stops before the expected obstacle. • To release the accelerator pedal – take your foot off the gas; the car gradually slows on its own but does not come to a complete stop and continues moving. • To drive without changing speed – keep the accelerator position the same; the car continues at a constant speed. RTR 128. If there is an obstruction or traffic safety is at risk, the driver must reduce speed or, if necessary, bring the vehicle to a complete stop or steer around the obstruction (if it can be seen) without creating a hazard for other road users.

Oncoming vehicles painted in dark colours often create the illusion that they are moving more slowly than they actually are.

The function of a vehicle suspension system is to convert bumps and shocks transmitted to the wheels, with the aid of shock absorbers, into minor oscillations of the vehicle body, providing comfort for driver and passengers. The suspension reduces body oscillations, and when functioning properly it enhances driving safety.

When vehicle speed increases, the layer of water on the road becomes deeper. Heavier rainfall also increases the water layer during driving. On roads with a transverse crown (where the carriageway is higher in the centre), the water layer is thinner because rainwater drains off the surface toward the edges more quickly. On asphalt, a tyre can displace only as much water as the volume available in its tread.

High speed is unsafe on icy roads because the slippery surface increases braking distance; therefore you should drive slowly. On slippery roads, also try to prevent excessive wheel slip by keeping engine revolutions low — a higher gear results in lower engine RPM. Select a gear appropriate for your speed, but ensure it is as high as possible. If you feel the vehicle beginning to skid, immediately and gently release the accelerator and do not change the clutch pedal position.

A driver must maintain clear forward visibility in all weather conditions. Use the windscreen wipers according to the intensity of precipitation, traffic, presence of pedestrians and other circumstances. Waiting until "the windscreen is covered in snow and you are unable to see anything" is too late.

According to the Road Traffic Rules (RTR), a blue sign showing the settlement name in white letters indicates the start of a settlement where the special traffic regulations that normally apply within built-up areas do NOT apply. By contrast, a sign with the settlement name in black letters on a white background marks the start of a settlement where built-up-area traffic rules are in force (RTR 131). The following maximum speeds apply outside built-up areas (RTR 131.1): for passenger cars, light goods vehicles with a permissible maximum mass up to 3.5 tonnes, motorcycles and tricycles — on motorways: 130 km/h from April to October and 110 km/h from November to March; on expressways/highways: 120 km/h from April to October and 110 km/h from November to March; on roads with asphalt or concrete pavement: 90 km/h; on other roads: 70 km/h. See road sign 612: Beginning of a built-up area where special built-up-area rules do not apply. Road sign 613: End of a built-up area (marked by sign 616); it may show the name of another settlement and the distance to it.

If the red battery warning light illuminates while the engine is running, it indicates the alternator (generator) has failed and the battery is not being charged.

Avoid sudden steering or braking to prevent further instability. Gently accelerate — increasing the driven wheel's RPM will help the wheel regain traction and make it easier to return to the paved road.

RTR 136. Drivers should avoid unnecessary overtaking manoeuvres. Before overtaking, drivers must exercise extra caution and ensure that: 136.1 no driver following has already begun to overtake them; 136.2 the driver of the vehicle to be overtaken is not indicating a left turn; 136.3 the section of lane required for the overtaking manoeuvre is clear and the manoeuvre will not obstruct oncoming traffic or pedestrians on the carriageway; 136.4 a safe distance from the vehicle being overtaken can be maintained during the manoeuvre; 136.5 after completing the overtaking manoeuvre they will be able to return safely to the original traffic lane without obstructing the overtaken vehicle.

Braking with uneven tire wear between the left and right sides is dangerous because it can cause the vehicle to slide off the road and overturn.

3. Terms used in the Road Traffic Rules: 3.2. 'Give way' means that drivers must stop, or must not begin to drive or manoeuvre, if doing so would require other vehicle drivers to change their direction of travel or their speed.

Passengers may board or alight from the roadway side only when it is impossible to do so from the pavement (sidewalk) or hard shoulder, and only if it can be done safely without obstructing other road users.

RTR 77.1. When the traffic officer's arms are extended sideways or pointed downward: 77.1.1. Vehicles located to the officer's left and right may proceed straight ahead or turn right; pedestrians may cross the carriageway. 77.1.2. Vehicles and pedestrians positioned in front of or behind the officer must not proceed. JB

LAW ON ROAD TRAFFIC SAFETY Article 2. §84. "Vehicle keeper" shall mean a person in possession of and using a vehicle by virtue of ownership, trust, lease, hire, or another lawful basis.

The order of the General Director of the state company "Regitra" "On the approval of the description of the criteria and methods for evaluating the skills and abilities of driving a motor vehicle" in 2013 December 23 No. V-223: 3.18. Speed selection: accelerate evenly, drive at a speed appropriate to the traffic situation and do not exceed the permitted speed: 3.18.1. control the speed of the vehicle by performing maneuvers: 3.18.1.1. if necessary, maintain a speed slow enough to compensate for any error made; 3.18.1.2. the vehicle must move evenly and smoothly; JB

You cannot overtake on the right because you are on a narrow road. Overtaking on the right of a vehicle that is turning left is permitted only if there is sufficient space on the carriageway. RTR 136. Drivers are advised to avoid unnecessary overtaking maneuvers. Before overtaking, drivers must exercise extra caution and ensure that: 136.1 none of the drivers behind has already begun to overtake; 136.2 the driver of the vehicle to be overtaken is not indicating a left turn; 136.3 the portion of lane required for overtaking is clear and the maneuver will not obstruct oncoming vehicles or pedestrians using the carriageway; 136.4 a safe distance from the vehicle being overtaken will be maintained during the maneuver; 136.5 after overtaking they will be able to return to the same traffic lane safely without obstructing the overtaken vehicle. RTR 137. If the vehicle in front is indicating a left turn and has changed lanes to make that left turn (or to turn around), vehicles following must pass the turning vehicle on the right or wait until it leaves the traffic lane.

Drivers should check that all vehicle lights are working before every long journey and at least once every six months. Properly functioning lights help you assess road conditions accurately and reduce the risk of accidents.

Driving across a level crossing where the traffic lights are switched off and the barrier is raised or absent is permitted, but only if you obey traffic regulations and ensure that no train is approaching. 168. Before entering and crossing a level crossing, a road user must comply with road signs, road markings, the position of the barrier, traffic lights, audible warnings, and the signals given by level crossing attendants/controllers. Before entering a level crossing, a road user must always verify that no rail-borne vehicle is approaching the level crossing. It is recommended that children under 12 be accompanied when crossing a level crossing. 173. Drivers must not: 173.3. enter a level crossing after the barrier has been lowered or has begun to be lowered, willfully lift the barrier or manoeuvre around the barriers;

A generator charges the battery and supplies electrical current to the vehicle's electrical systems and other consumers only while the engine is running, i.e. while the engine's crankshaft is turning. Via the drive pulley and belt, the crankshaft turns the generator, which produces electricity.

Maintain a speed that allows you to stop the vehicle with the parking brake if necessary. Switch on your hazard warning lights to warn other road users. Drive to the nearest safe place to stop and call roadside assistance.

Open windows and sunroofs reduce the car's aerodynamic properties - it starts to move more slowly, more energy is needed to maintain speed, so fuel is used less efficiently, more is needed. JB

The field of vision is affected by driving speed, visual acuity (e.g., short-sightedness), fatigue, the color and brightness of objects, their contrast with the background, and other factors. As speed increases, a driver’s area of attention narrows and shifts forward: although drivers tend to look farther ahead, the effective dimensions of attention decrease inversely with speed. For example, at 50 km/h it is usually sufficient to focus about 150 m ahead to detect an obstacle; at 140 km/h an oncoming vehicle may not be noticed until it is only 15–20 m from the point of passing.

Heavy rain forms a layer of water on the asphalt surface (especially where longitudinal ruts are pressed), which is not able to drain so quickly to the side of the road. If we drive fast in such conditions, the tire tread can't squeeze the layer of water formed on the road from under the wheel and the so-called aquaplaning (water wedge) begins. In other words, the car's wheels no longer touch or have a worse grip on the asphalt surface and the car can become out of control. JB

Drivers with their blood alcohol content exceeding 1.5 per mille shall be punished by a fine or arrest or by a custodial sentence for a term of up to one year (since 01/01/2017). Drink-driving can be punishable both criminally and administratively. The types of liability depend on the specific situation and the seriousness of the offence: Administrative liability - applies when the offences are less serious. Criminal liability - applies when the offence is particularly serious or the driving endangers traffic safety, the health or life of others. The Code of Administrative Offences of the Republic of Lithuania Article 420. 2. Reckless driving, i.e. a violation of the Road Traffic Rules endangering traffic safety or the safety of oneself or other people because of hooligan incentives, incurs a fine: ranging between EUR 450 and EUR 550 for drivers and ranging between EUR 750 and EUR 1,000 for those who are not entitled to drive vehicles. The Code of Administrative Offences of the Republic of Lithuania Article 420. 4. The acts provided for in Paragraph 2 of this Article committed by an intoxicated person (mildly intoxicated: more than 0.4 per mille but not exceeding 1.5 per mille) or a person under the influence of drugs, psychotropic substances, or other psychoactive substances as well as a person who avoided performing a field sobriety test or a person who had used alcohol, drugs, psychotropic substances, or other psychoactive substances before the test impose a fine ranging between EUR 850 and EUR 1,200 on drivers.  The Criminal Code of the Republic of Lithuania Article 281. 7. People who drive a road vehicle or teach a learner driver to drive when under the influence of alcohol with their blood alcohol content exceeding 1.5 per mille shall be punished by a fine or arrest or by a custodial sentence for a term of up to one year.
