A central reservation is not part of the carriageway. A carriageway is the portion of a road intended for vehicular traffic.

Stopping distance is the distance a vehicle covers from the moment the driver becomes aware of an obstacle until the vehicle comes to a complete stop.

RTR 203. A driver must ensure that children transported in a motor vehicle use the appropriate installed and correctly fitted restraint systems. JB

When turning, the driver of the red car must yield to any vehicle coming from the opposite direction on a road of equal priority that is approaching from the right (the green car). Once the red car has already entered the intersection, the green car is considered an obstacle. At intersections where the main road changes direction, the priority-to-the-right rule applies (RTR 157). When turning left or making a U-turn, a driver must yield to oncoming vehicles on an equally important road that are going straight or turning right — and, where overtaking is permitted, also to vehicles that are overtaking.

Regulation RTR 95. During hours of darkness or in conditions of poor visibility, main-beam headlights must be switched to low beam in the following cases: 95.1 on illuminated roads; 95.2 when the distance to an oncoming vehicle is at least 150 m. JB

Note: If the steering wheel is turned sharply while reversing, the front of the vehicle can swing to the side and strike obstacles or other road users. When reversing, a driver must give way to other road users.

Manhole covers for underground information and communication systems can be more slippery than the surrounding road surface and may also be uneven.

RTR 21. Driving training. 4. Driving instruction on roads is permitted only when the student possesses sufficient driving skill. Instruction may be carried out only on roads where the owner has not prohibited it.

Regulation RTR 67 — Only persons aged 14 or older may drive an animal-drawn vehicle, herd animals or birds, or ride an animal on the road.

If other drivers switch their headlights from high beam to low beam (flash) during the day, it may indicate that your low beams are excessively bright or misaligned and are dazzling other road users. This is dangerous because dazzled drivers can become disoriented and cause accidents. If you notice that drivers often flash their lights as they pass you, it is a sign to have your vehicle's lighting checked and, if necessary, adjusted. 81. The warning signals are as follows: using turn and brake light signals (signals may also be indicated by hand); sounding the horn; switching headlights on and off; using hazard warning lights; turning on flashing orange hazard lights; and placing a warning triangle on the road or attaching it to a vehicle.

Causes of premature clutch wear include an improperly adjusted clutch release mechanism, loose clutch mounting screws, weakened clutch springs, or a worn gearbox primary shaft.

If the load projects less than 1 m beyond the front or rear of the vehicle, marking is not required (RTR 2.10). Any motor vehicle carrying a load that extends more than 1 m beyond the front or rear, or beyond the sides of the vehicle, must have the extremities of the load marked as specified in Annex 4 to these Rules (RTR 4.12). The extremities of loads protruding more than 1 m in front or rear, any projection to the side, and extremities of vehicles wider than 2.6 m must bear distinguishing marks — 400 mm square plates covered with alternating diagonal reflective white and red stripes 50 mm wide. These plates must be mounted not lower than 0.4 m and not higher than 1.6 m above ground level. During hours of darkness or when visibility is poor, such vehicles must have lights at the projecting points: white at the front, amber at the sides and red at the rear. JB

This is considered a road traffic accident. First, try to locate the vehicle's owner and, together with them, complete the Road Accident Report Form. If you cannot find the owner, call the police — they can help locate the owner or come to the scene to record the accident. Also notify your insurance company of the accident as soon as possible. RTR 220. If there are no deaths or injuries and the involved road users agree on the circumstances and do not call the police to the scene, the parties must draw the accident sketch on the Road Accident Report Form, describe the circumstances in writing, and have the form signed by all involved. If none of the parties has the Road Accident Report Form, the circumstances and sketch may be recorded on a blank sheet of paper listing all involved road users, their vehicles and any witnesses, and confirmed by the signatures of all involved. If the circumstances are contested, the police must be called to the scene. RTR 221. Participants in a road accident must refrain from consuming alcoholic beverages, medicines, narcotic drugs or other intoxicating substances immediately after the accident until they have undergone, or have refused, testing for alcohol or impairment by narcotic, psychotropic or other substances. RTR 222. If the accident caused only property damage and the victim is not present at the scene, the person involved in the accident must immediately notify the victim, and if this is not possible — the police.

Stopping distance is the distance a vehicle travels from the moment the driver notices an obstruction until the vehicle comes to a complete stop. Braking distance is the distance the vehicle travels from the moment the brakes are fully applied until it stops. Reaction distance is the distance the vehicle travels from the moment the driver detects an obstruction until the driver begins to apply the brakes.

The distance between a stationary vehicle and a solid line (or the kerb) must be at least 3 metres. If the distance is exactly 3 metres, standing and parking are permitted. If the distance is less than 3 metres (for example, 2 metres), standing and parking are prohibited. RTR 150. Standing and parking are prohibited: 150.7 where there is a distance of less than 3 m between a stationary vehicle and a solid line of the road marking, the kerb, or, in its absence, the edge of the carriageway;

Road sign 304 — "No entry for goods vehicles." Entry is prohibited for goods vehicles and vehicle combinations whose permissible maximum mass exceeds 3.5 tonnes or the weight shown on the sign. Tractors and self‑propelled vehicles are also prohibited, except for service vehicles.

RTR – Annex 3. 1.26. A double broken line indicates lanes of opposing traffic; it separates flows of traffic moving in opposite directions. Vehicles must not cross this line when it separates traffic moving in opposite directions. If the line separates lanes moving in the same direction, vehicles may cross it from either side when the green lane-control light is illuminated. When the amber lane-control light is illuminated, vehicles may cross it only if the line is to the driver’s right.

Road sign 334 — “No parking on odd days”. Parking is prohibited on the side of the road where this sign is placed on odd-numbered days of the month. Road sign 335 — “No parking on even days”. Parking is prohibited on the side of the road where this sign is placed on even-numbered days of the month. When signs 334 and 335 are installed on both sides of the road, vehicles must be moved from one side to the other between 19:00 and 24:00 (7:00 pm–12:00 am); during that interval, parking is permitted on either side of the road.

Persons under 14 years of age are not permitted to ride bicycles on roads. However, those who complete an additional training course and obtain a school-issued certificate may ride on roads from age 12. Within residential areas, there is no minimum age restriction for cyclists.

Drivers of special (emergency) vehicles — such as ambulances, police, and fire service vehicles — may use blue and red (or only blue) flashing lights and special audible signals when necessary to: (1) save human life or health; (2) protect property; (3) ensure public order and traffic safety; (4) apprehend persons suspected of offences; or (5) escort or accompany official delegates and protected persons. Flashing lights must be visible in all directions (360°). While using these signals, drivers of special vehicles may disregard certain traffic rules specified in the Regulations, provided they do not jeopardize traffic safety and only after ensuring that other road users are giving way. They must drive cautiously and avoid creating danger to other road users. Other road users are required to give way immediately to such vehicles so they can pass safely and quickly. The right of way also applies to drivers of vehicles being escorted by special vehicles.

A slippery road surface is hazardous because tyre grip on the pavement is greatly reduced. As a result, stopping distances increase and the vehicle may skid sideways when negotiating a bend.

Note that a motorized bicycle must have at least two wheels and an auxiliary internal combustion engine or an electric motor — it is not sufficient for it to have only an internal combustion engine. SEAK Art. 2.40. "Motorized bicycle" — a vehicle with at least two wheels that is powered by the rider’s muscular force using pedals or handlebars and is equipped with an auxiliary internal combustion engine or electric motor with a maximum net power of no more than 1 kW and a maximum design speed of no more than 25 km/h. The auxiliary engine stops providing power when the vehicle reaches 25 km/h. Wheelchairs for persons with disabilities are not classified as motorized bicycles.

LAW ON ROAD TRAFFIC SAFETY Article 22.5. Novice drivers are issued a driving licence valid for three years. In accordance with the procedure established by the Minister of the Interior or their authorised institution, this licence may be replaced with a 10-year licence after two years from the date of issue without completing additional driver training, provided that during those two years the driver has not committed any violations of the Road Traffic Rules (RTR) that would require additional driver training under this Law and has not caused a road traffic accident resulting in bodily injury to road users (except where the accident occurred under circumstances that exclude criminal liability or where the person is not subject to administrative liability). A novice driver who commits any RTR violation that triggers additional driver training under this Law, or who causes a road traffic accident resulting in bodily injury to road users (except as noted above), must complete additional driver training within one year from the date a court judgment (or order) recognising the person as having committed an offence takes effect, or from the date of execution of an administrative order issued after the administrative offence. If a court judgment or penal order imposes arrest or a term of imprisonment and the execution of the sentence is not suspended, the additional driver training must be completed within one year after serving the imposed sentence.

According to RTR Annex 4.12: Any load whose extreme edge projects more than 1 m beyond the front or rear of the vehicle—or which projects even minimally to the side—or any vehicle wider than 2.6 m must be marked with distinctive signs: squares 400 mm on a side with diagonal alternating reflective white and red stripes 50 mm wide. These signs must be mounted between 0.4 m and 1.6 m above ground level. During hours of darkness or when visibility is poor, such vehicles must also display lights in designated positions: white at the front, amber (orange) on the sides, and red at the rear.

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.

When driving beside a line of parked vehicles, watch for pedestrians who may step out into the road, drivers exiting their cars, and vehicle doors opening unexpectedly — any of these can cause a collision. 148. The doors of a parked vehicle must not be opened if doing so could create an obstruction or a hazard to other road users.

RTR 168. Before entering and crossing a level crossing, road users must obey road signs, road markings, the position of barriers, traffic lights, audible warnings, and the signals of level crossing attendants/controllers. Before entering a level crossing, a road user must always ensure that no rail vehicle is approaching the level crossing. It is recommended that children under 12 be accompanied by an adult when crossing a level crossing.

Criminal Code of the Republic of Lithuania, Article 281‑1: A person who, while operating a motor vehicle, tractor, or self-propelled machine, or instructing a learner driver, is under the influence of alcohol with a blood alcohol concentration of 1.51 per mille or higher; or who refused a sobriety test when showing signs of intoxication; or who consumed alcohol after a road accident before the circumstances were established and was found to have a blood alcohol concentration of 1.51 per mille or higher, shall be punished by a fine, arrest, or imprisonment for up to one year.

Traffic Regulations (RTR) 116. Turning around is prohibited under clause 116.4: on and under bridges, overpasses, and viaducts. JB
