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.

RTR 73. Traffic light signals: 73.10. A flashing white light used at level crossings indicates that vehicles may proceed only after confirming that no rail-borne vehicle is approaching the crossing.

At an uncontrolled intersection of roads with equal priority, drivers must yield to vehicles approaching from the right when their paths intersect. A vehicle turning left must give way to oncoming traffic that is going straight or turning right. In this scenario, the red car goes first because the motorcycle, which had entered the intersection, stopped to yield. The white car proceeds next, since it no longer has a vehicle to its right, and finally the motorcyclist completes the maneuver — the motorcycle goes third. (RTR 155; RTR 157.)

There are no lane direction signs; therefore the driver of the red vehicle may go straight or turn right. When changing lanes, the driver of the green vehicle must yield. RTR 104. When changing lanes, a driver must yield to vehicles moving in the same direction in the adjacent lane. If vehicles moving in the same direction change lanes simultaneously, a driver must yield to the vehicle on the right, except in the cases specified in Paragraph 112 of the Rules. RTR 112. If an acceleration lane is provided for entering the road, the driver must use that lane and merge into the main traffic flow (change lanes and move into the adjacent lane), yielding to vehicles already in that flow or to vehicles changing lanes toward the deceleration lane. RTR 106. Before turning right, left, or making a U-turn (except when entering an intersection with circular traffic), a driver must move in advance to the edge of the carriageway designated for that direction. Road signs and/or road markings may indicate otherwise.

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.

Although the road sign normally prohibits overtaking, overtaking vehicles traveling at speeds under 30 km/h is permitted provided it can be done safely. Road sign 325 — “Overtaking prohibited” forbids overtaking, except for individual vehicles (or individual vehicle combinations) traveling at speeds under 30 km/h. Road sign 805 — “Validity zone ahead” indicates the length of the zone beyond the sign during which a hazardous road section or other associated signs remain in effect.

129. The maximum speed limit within built-up areas for all vehicles is 50 km/h.

Regulation RTR 188: An orange flashing light may be used only when the vehicle obstructs other road users—for example, when the vehicle's loaded or unloaded dimensions exceed permitted limits; when performing work on the roadway; when stopping or standing; when moving at very low speed; when escorting an organized group of cyclists; or when transporting hazardous goods. An orange flashing light does not confer priority; it merely attracts attention and warns other road users of a potential hazard. While driving, standing, or working on the road, drivers of vehicles displaying orange flashing lights must ensure they do not compromise traffic safety.

Answers 1–3 are methods to lower fuel consumption and reduce pollution. Answer 4 is incorrect — driving closely behind the vehicle ahead to reduce air resistance is unsafe.

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

RTR 141. Vehicles may stand or park on the right-hand side of the road, as close as possible to the right edge of a hard shoulder, or at the carriageway edge if no hard shoulder exists. When entering or leaving the hard shoulder, the driver must not endanger other road users. If a cycle lane is installed along the right edge of the carriageway, drivers may stand or park adjacent to that cycle lane. 1.1. A NARROW CONTINUOUS LINE separates traffic flows in opposite directions and prohibits driving in the lane for oncoming traffic on the marked section of road; it also marks the edges of traffic lanes, sections of the carriageway into which entry is prohibited, the limits of vehicle parking spaces and the carriageway edge. At road sign No. 413 "Pedestrian and bicycle path" it separates the part of the path intended for bicycle traffic from the part intended for pedestrian traffic. Crossing this line is prohibited, except where it marks the carriageway edge or the boundary of a parking space.

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

Regulation RTR 167: When an intersection is controlled by traffic lights, drivers must obey the light signals regardless of any priority indicated by road signs. If the traffic lights are not operating or the amber (yellow) light is flashing, drivers must follow the priority indicated by the road signs.

The order no. 1V-328 of the Minister of Internal Affairs of the Republic of Lithuania in 2008 September 10  "On Approval of the Rules for Issuing Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" ch. II. p. 7: 7.

A driver who, as a novice driver, violated the KET requirement(s) for which additional driver training is provided for in this law, or caused a traffic accident that impaired the health of a road user (except for cases where the traffic accident was caused by criminal liability extenuating circumstances or circumstances where the person is not held administratively responsible), additional driver training must be completed within one year from the date of entry into force of the resolution (court verdict) by which the person was recognized as having committed a violation of the law or from the date of execution of the administrative order issued after committing an administrative offense. In cases where a court verdict or criminal order imposes an arrest or a term of imprisonment and the execution of the imposed sentence is not postponed, the additional training of drivers must be completed within one year of the execution of the imposed sentence. JB

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

When stopped uphill at a red traffic light, the recommended way to keep a manual-transmission car stationary is to use the parking brake. This is especially advised for inexperienced drivers, as it makes starting away easier and reduces the risk of rolling backward.

LAW ON ROAD TRAFFIC SAFETY — Article 2, Section 14. A 'road accident' means an incident occurring on a road in public or private areas where a moving vehicle causes death or injury to persons, or damages or destroys at least one vehicle, a load, the roadway, its structures, or any other property at the scene.

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. 

RTR 40. An organised group of children under 16, accompanied by at least two adults, may use pavements, footpaths, or the pedestrian side of shared footpath and cycle tracks if available. If none of these facilities are present, the group may walk along the hard shoulder, but only in daylight hours when visibility is good, in no more than two files walking against the flow of traffic, and only when it is safe to do so. Accompanying adults must be positioned at the front and rear of the column and wear high-visibility vests. It is recommended that all children in the organised group wear high-visibility vests when walking along the hard shoulder.

The primary characteristics of a driver's will are discipline, determination, self-control, and perseverance. Disciplined drivers consistently obey the rules of the road (RTR). Determined drivers do not hesitate about decisions they make while operating a vehicle. A driver's self-control is demonstrated by remaining calm in complex traffic situations and by showing respect for other road users. Perseverance is the ability to overcome difficulties encountered on the road.

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.

If the steering wheel gets very easy to turn, it means that the vehicle tyres lost their traction on a slippery road surface. In this case, you have to reduce your speed. You should do it slowly because an abrupt change of engine revolutions or braking on a slippery road surface may cause the vehicle to skid or slide. 

RTR – 150. Standing and parking are prohibited: 150.3 on and under bridges, viaducts and flyovers — except where parking is expressly permitted by road signs indicating a parking space — and in tunnels.

Drivers approaching a road bend should be aware the bend may be sharper than it appears. Choose a safe speed and the correct road position to avoid entering the oncoming lane. A safe speed depends on all circumstances: weather, road and vehicle condition (including load), driver experience and fitness. According to RTR 127, drivers must not exceed the legal speed limit. When selecting speed, consider the terrain, road and vehicle condition, load, weather and traffic density so you can stop safely for any foreseeable obstacle. Drivers must slow down and stop when conditions require, especially if visibility is poor.

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.

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 174. On roads designated as Motorway or Motor Vehicle Road the following are prohibited: 174.2 standing or parking except in designated parking areas; RTR Annex 3 1.2. A BROAD CONTINUOUS LINE marks the edge of the carriageway and the boundaries of sections where entry is prohibited on motorways and highways; it separates traffic lanes reserved for public-service vehicles and delineates lanes from bus stops. Vehicles must not cross this line unless it marks the edge of the carriageway. JB

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.

Carrying a 100 kg load in city driving increases fuel consumption by about 0.5 L per 100 km. The air conditioner consumes approximately 0.5–1.0 L/100 km; a fan consumes about 0.08–0.3 L/100 km; the radio about 0.06–0.21 L/100 km; modern audio systems about 0.2–0.7 L/100 km. JB

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
