It is prohibited to operate (permanently use) a vehicle if:
If you discover that the horn is not working, you may drive only to a parking area or a repair facility. However, it is prohibited to operate a vehicle permanently if it does not meet the technical requirements (for example, if the horn, speedometer, or other required systems are not functioning). RTR 223. Vehicles traveling on roads must comply with the technical requirements applicable in the Republic of Lithuania when undergoing mandatory technical inspection. RTR 224. Only motor vehicles and trailers that are in good repair, except in the cases provided for in these Rules, may participate in public traffic in the Republic of Lithuania. Short-term (one-day) participation in public traffic is allowed, pursuant to the prescribed procedure, for vehicles and trailers displaying temporary license plates whose registered owners (keepers) have obtained compulsory motor third-party liability insurance and have paid the applicable fees and taxes for the vehicle or road use. RTR 15. Driving vehicles that are not in proper condition and do not comply with technical requirements for vehicles is prohibited. Before starting to drive, the driver of a motor vehicle, tractor, or self-propelled vehicle must ensure that the vehicle is in good condition, that it carries a warning triangle, fire extinguisher, first aid kit, and any other items mandatory for that type of vehicle, and must monitor the vehicle's technical condition during the journey. If the vehicle breaks down while driving and therefore does not meet the technical requirements and cannot be repaired on site, the driver may proceed, taking all necessary precautions, to the nearest parking area or vehicle repair shop, except in the cases laid down in paragraph 234 of these Rules. JB
1. The horn (sound signal) is not functioning.
2. The speedometer is not functioning.
3. The windshield is cracked and obstructs the driver's view.
What must the driver do when stopped by a police officer?
RTR 16. A driver must stop the vehicle when ordered by the inspecting officer. The driver of a motor vehicle, tractor, self-propelled vehicle or military vehicle (including tactical and logistical vehicles and combinations with trailers) must carry and, upon request of the inspecting officer, present a valid driving licence or a document certifying the right to drive tractors and/or self‑propelled vehicles or military equipment; the vehicle registration documents and proof of the compulsory roadworthiness test (including the report of the most recent technical inspection for vehicle categories M2, M3, N2, N3, O3, O4 and wheeled tractor categories T1b, T2b, T3b, T4.1b, T4.2b, T4.3b, T5); the certificate (policy) of compulsory motor third‑party liability insurance; and other documents required by the laws of the Republic of Lithuania and these Rules (except where the Law on Road Traffic Safety exempts the driver from carrying certain documents). The driver must also allow the inspecting officer to check the readings of validated tachographs or other devices that record driving time and rest periods. Documents shall be presented to the inspecting officer without leaving the vehicle. The driver may exit the vehicle only with the inspecting officer’s permission. RTR 91. If the vehicle is equipped with hazard warning lights, they must be switched on: 91.3 when the vehicle is stopped by an inspecting officer. JB
1. If requested by a police officer, present the required documents without leaving the vehicle.
2. After stopping, switch on the vehicle’s hazard warning lights.
3. Exit the vehicle and hand the documents to the officer without waiting for them to approach.
4. Pull over as far to the right as possible, onto the road shoulder or verge.
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.
A driver is operating a goods vehicle with a permissible maximum weight under 3,500 kg. Which driving‑licence category must the driver hold?

Which vehicles have violated the Road Traffic Rules by stopping at the entrance to the yard?
This is not an intersection but the entrance to a yard. Therefore, vehicle C is not prohibited from parking in this way. RTR 150. Standing and parking shall be prohibited: 150.15 at crossroads and in places where vehicles enter the road from adjacent areas and exit the road to adjacent areas, and within a 5-metre distance from those points (on the side of the road where the entrance/exit is located), except where road signs permit parking.
1. Vehicle A
2. Vehicle B
3. Vehicle C
4. All vehicles are parked correctly.
In which situations must a driver report a road accident to the police?
If a road accident results only in property damage and the owner of the damaged property is not present at the scene and cannot be contacted, the road user involved must immediately notify the owner or, if that is not possible, report the accident to the police.
XXIX. Obligations of Road Users in the Event of a Road Accident (paras. 219–222)
219. In the event of a road accident, every driver involved or any other road user must:
219.1. stop immediately without creating further danger to other road users and mark the accident scene as required by subparagraph 91.2 and paragraph 92 of these Rules;
219.2. take all possible measures to ensure safety at the scene, and if the police are called, avoid (without endangering traffic) altering the circumstances of the accident and preserve the traces and evidence of the collision;

219.5. take all necessary measures to provide first aid to the casualties, call an ambulance or, if calling an ambulance or transporting casualties to a medical facility by other means is impossible, carry them to the nearest medical facility in a private vehicle unless such transport would endanger their life or health.
222. If a road accident causes only property damage and the victim is not present at the scene, the road user involved must immediately notify the victim or, if that is not possible, the police.
1. When the accident caused only property damage and the owner of the damaged property is not present at the scene and cannot be reached.
2. When there is a dispute or disagreement about the circumstances of the accident.
3. When a person has been injured as a result of the accident.
4. When a person has died as a result of the accident.
When is a child allowed to be transported in a child restraint (appropriate for their size and weight) on the front passenger seat of a motor vehicle?
RTR 201. Do not place a rear-facing child restraint suitable for the child's size on the front passenger seat if that seat is protected by an active airbag. This prohibition does not apply when the front passenger airbag is deactivated. It is recommended that children remain as long as possible in a rear-facing child restraint adapted to their height and weight, in accordance with the child seat manufacturer's instructions.
1. Only in a forward-facing child seat.
2. A child may be transported in a rear-facing child restraint on the front passenger seat if the vehicle has no front passenger airbag.
3. A child may be transported in a rear-facing child restraint on the front passenger seat if the front passenger airbag has been deactivated.
What must you do on an unlit road at night when repairing your car?
RTR 151. If a vehicle is forced to stop where standing or parking is prohibited, the driver must switch on the hazard warning lights if available and/or place a warning triangle on the road as specified in Paragraph 92 of the Rules, and remove the vehicle from the road as soon as possible. If the driver intends to stop on unlit sections of road during the hours of darkness or when visibility is poor, and the hazard warning lights are not available or are inoperative, the vehicle must be parked off the carriageway. If that is impossible, the stopping location must be marked as specified in Paragraph 92 of the Rules.
RTR 92. If the emergency light signalling system is not fitted or is defective and an emergency stop is required where stopping or parking is prohibited, in the event of an accident, or where the stopped vehicle would be visible to other road users from less than 100 metres, the driver of a motor vehicle (other than a motor moped or a motorcycle without a trailer), a tractor or a self-propelled machine must immediately erect an emergency stop sign on the side of the carriageway opposite the direction of travel: in built-up areas not closer than 25 m, and outside built-up areas not closer than 50 m to the stopped vehicle. If at least one rear position lamp is defective and the emergency light signal does not work when driving in the dark or in poor visibility, an emergency stop sign must be affixed to the rear of the vehicle in order to continue driving.
Law on Road Traffic Safety art. 13.14. The driver of a motor vehicle, tractor or self-propelled machine who stops at night on an unlit road or in conditions of poor visibility, except in designated parking spaces, must wear a high-visibility vest with reflective elements.
JB
1. Switch on the hazard warning lights (emergency flashers).
2. Place a warning triangle on the road if the hazard lights are unavailable or inoperative.
3. Wear a high-visibility vest with reflective elements.
4. Station a person to warn other drivers by waving their arms.
Is overtaking permitted in this situation?
A narrow continuous (solid) line prohibits overtaking. There is an exception when the road has both a narrow solid line and the road sign "Overtaking Prohibited" (RTR Annex 1.325): that sign indicates overtaking is prohibited except for single vehicles or single-vehicle combinations traveling slower than 30 km/h, which means very slow-moving vehicles (e.g., tractors) may be passed. In the pictured case there is no such sign—only a continuous line—so overtaking, even of a very slowly moving tractor, is not permitted.
RTR Annex 1.805 "The Validity Zone Ahead" indicates the length of the zone to which a sign applies beyond the sign itself.
Horizontal Marking 1.1: A narrow solid line separates opposing traffic and forbids drivers from using the oncoming lane on the marked section; it also marks lane boundaries, carriageway areas vehicles are prohibited from entering, parking-space limits, and the carriageway edge. Vehicles must not cross this line except where it marks the edge of the carriageway or a parking space.
1. Overtaking is prohibited.
2. Overtaking is permitted.
In which situations during hours of darkness must the vehicle's high-beam headlights be switched to low beam?
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
1. When driving on illuminated roads within built-up areas.
2. When an oncoming vehicle is at least 150 m away.
3. Switching to low beam is optional.
4. When driving on illuminated roads outside built-up areas.
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.
How should you drive safely on a steep slope?
Driver competencies - category B: A vehicle will begin to skid when the tires lose traction with the road surface. This may occur on inclines, slopes, or in strong crosswinds.
1. Drive at maximum speed.
2. Drive with the engine turned off.
3. Drive slowly, avoiding sudden steering or braking movements.
What is the purpose of seat belts?
In a road accident, a seat belt keeps the driver and passengers restrained in their seats and prevents ejection from the vehicle, even during a rollover. Occupants who are not restrained are often ejected and may be crushed by an overturned vehicle, frequently suffering severe injuries or death. Seat belts also help reduce the severity of injuries by distributing crash forces across the body's stronger, less vulnerable areas.
1. Seat belts distribute the forces produced in a road crash across the body's less vulnerable areas.
2. In a road collision, seat belts keep the driver and passengers secured in their seats.
Actions to take when driving in fog with visibility under 300 metres:
Selecting an appropriate heating/ventilation setting will reduce condensation on the windows; using the windscreen wipers will clear fogged windows and maintain good visibility; switching on the fog lamps will make the road more visible and help other road users notice you. RTR 98. Fog lamps may be used only when visibility is seriously reduced, and the front fog lamps may be used in the event of failure of the front left dipped‑beam headlamp. Poor visibility means a situation caused by weather conditions or other phenomena when road visibility is less than 300 metres, regardless of road parameters.
1. Select the appropriate heating/ventilation mode.
2. Occasionally use the windscreen wipers to clear fogged-up windows.
3. Switch on the fog lamps.
Is it permitted to park a vehicle with a mass of 2.6 tonnes in the yard of an apartment building?
RTR 176. In residential areas road users must not: 176.3. leave parked lorries with a maximum permissible weight of more than 3.5 tonnes, buses with more than 12 seats, tractors, self-propelled machinery and trailers with a maximum permissible weight of more than 3.5 tonnes; RTR 178. The requirements of this Chapter also apply to the yards of apartment blocks. The provisions of Paragraph 175 and Subparagraph 176.4 of the Rules apply to car parks.
1. Yes, it is permitted.
2. No, it is not permitted.
A driver intends to make a left turn. According to the road safety rules used in the driving theory exam, which is the correct sequence of actions?
1. Activate the left turn signal, then check surrounding traffic, and then perform the turn.
2. Ensure the road and traffic are clear, then activate the left turn signal, and finally execute the turn.
3. Execute the turn first and then switch on the turn signal.
4. Activate the left turn signal and immediately commence the turn.
Are non-public-service vehicles allowed to drive in a lane marked with the letter 'A'?
A lane marked with the letter 'A' is reserved exclusively for public service vehicles. Non-public-service vehicles may only change into or use this lane when preparing to turn right. An exception exists for lanes marked with the 'A+' symbol. (See RTR Annex 3, §1.21; RTR 181 and Paragraph 182 of the Rules.) Non-public-service vehicles must not drive in lanes marked with the 'Lane Reserved for Public Service Vehicles' sign and the letter 'A'.
1. Yes — non-public-service vehicles are permitted to use that lane.
2. No — non-public-service vehicles are not permitted to use that lane.
You are on the right side of the road and are about to start moving. A goods vehicle is behind you. What should you take into consideration?
101. Before starting to move, changing lanes, or otherwise altering course, drivers must ensure the manoeuvre is safe and give way to other road users (i.e., avoid creating obstructions).
1. You may not notice vehicles traveling in the same direction that are approaching or about to overtake you.
2. Other drivers may fail to see your left‑turn indicator.
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. Source: Technical requirements for motor vehicles and their trailers — Section V: Vehicle axles, wheels, tyres and suspension. 5.7. The tread depth of the tyres used must be at least: 5.7.1. 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.
To whom must a motorcyclist yield?
RTR 12. Road users must immediately yield to approaching emergency vehicles that display blue and red (or only blue) flashing lights and use special audible signals, as well as to vehicles escorted by them. Road users shall form an emergency corridor as follows: 12.1 On a road with a single lane in one direction, drivers must stop on the right hard shoulder if one exists; if there is no hard shoulder, they must stop as close as possible to the right edge of the carriageway. 12.2 On a road with two or more lanes in the same direction, vehicles in the far-left lane must move and stop as close as possible to the left edge of the carriageway designated for that direction, while vehicles in the lanes to the right must move and stop as close as possible to the right edge of the carriageway (or the hard shoulder). 12.3 On a road with a central reservation, only drivers travelling in the same direction must comply with the requirements in paragraphs 12.1 and 12.2. RTR 154. At a controlled intersection, drivers on a side (minor) road must yield to vehicles approaching on the priority road.
1. The red car.
2. The police vehicle.
3. The bus.
4. The motorcyclist is not required to yield to anyone.
When driving a passenger car with a trailer, what should you take into account when descending a hill?
The stopping distance increases when towing a trailer downhill because the trailer’s mass pushes the towing vehicle forward, adding momentum. Conversely, when driving uphill the trailer’s weight helps slow the vehicle and reduces the stopping distance.
1. A trailer will help the car stop more quickly.
2. The stopping distance will be reduced.
3. The stopping distance will increase.
4. The stopping distance will remain unchanged.
Which vehicle is considered an automobile?
Law on Road Traffic Safety, Article 2, paragraph 2. An automobile is a motor vehicle designed to travel on roads to carry goods and/or passengers or to tow other vehicles, excluding motorcycles, light quadricycles, quadricycles, power quadricycles, mopeds, tricycles, tractors, and self-propelled machines. Automobiles also include trolleybuses, which are non-rail vehicles powered by overhead electric cables. JB
1. Designed for towing other vehicles.
2. Designed for road use and for transporting goods.
3. Designed for road use and for transporting passengers.
4. Motorcycles, tractors, and self-propelled machines.
5. Non-rail electric vehicles powered by overhead electric cables — trolleybuses.
The effect of inertia on the vehicle (risk of sliding sideways) when cornering is reduced by:
The higher the vehicle's speed when cornering, the greater the effect of inertia and the higher the risk of the car sliding sideways. Lower speeds reduce inertia and the risk of sliding. A larger turning radius (a gentler curve) also reduces lateral inertial forces.
1. By decreasing the turning radius (making the turn tighter).
2. By reducing vehicle speed.
3. By increasing the turning radius (making the curve gentler).
What should you consider before setting out on a long journey?
Before a long journey, inspect your vehicle for obvious defects that could force you to stop. Avoid overloading the car to improve safety and reduce fuel consumption and wear. Planning your route with a navigation system helps make the trip faster, more efficient, and safer.
1. Performing a roadworthiness check.
2. Checking your tyre pressure.
3. Planning your route using a navigation system.
4. Avoiding overloading your vehicle.
Are motor vehicles permitted to tow trailers intended for agricultural tractors?
Motor vehicles are not permitted to tow trailers intended for agricultural tractors due to safety requirements and technical incompatibilities. The term "motor vehicle" excludes non-road rail vehicles, tractors, and self-propelled machines. Per RTR 207, the total weight of carried cargo and passengers and the axle loads must not exceed the gross vehicle weight and axle load limits specified for that vehicle by the Ministry of Transport and Communications of the Republic of Lithuania and by the vehicle manufacturer. The gross weight of a towed trailer (laden or unladen) must not exceed the maximum permissible tow weight established by the Ministry and the manufacturer. Consequently, motor vehicles are prohibited from towing trailers of non-motor vehicles, and non-motor vehicles are prohibited from towing trailers of motor vehicles.
1. Only sport utility vehicles (SUVs) are permitted to tow trailers designed for agricultural tractors.
2. Motor vehicles are prohibited from towing trailers intended for agricultural tractors.
3. Only Category C commercial vehicles are permitted to tow trailers designed for agricultural tractors.
What factors determine the severity of aquaplaning (a layer of water that can form between the tyre and the road surface during rain on asphalt)?
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.
1. Vehicle speed.
2. Rainfall intensity.
3. Tyre tread depth.
4. Tyre height.
How would you react if the vehicle began to skid on a wet surface (i.e., started to aquaplane)?
On roads (especially those with ruts) during heavy rain, water can accumulate on the asphalt because it cannot drain quickly toward the edges. If you accelerate under these conditions, the tire treads may be unable to disperse the accumulated water. The vehicle can aquaplane when a wedge of water lifts the tires off the road surface, reducing traction and making the vehicle difficult to control. If a vehicle begins to aquaplane, the driver should reduce speed to regain traction and stability.
1. You would immediately apply the brakes.
2. You would ease off the accelerator to reduce your speed.
3. You would increase your speed.
When is it permitted to teach someone to drive a motor vehicle on the roads?
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.
1. When the student has sufficient driving skills, understands the traffic rules, and complies with their requirements.
2. When the student can drive a vehicle but does not know the traffic rules.
3. Driving instruction on public roads is permitted only after the student has completed driving school.
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.
What are common causes of increased fuel consumption while driving?
Underinflated tires are the most common factor directly affecting fuel consumption; incorrect tire pressure can increase consumption by up to about 4%—both too little and too much pressure can have an effect. Check tire pressure when the tires are cold, because driving warms the rubber and raises the pressure. Carrying luggage on the roof increases aerodynamic drag and therefore fuel consumption. Frequent stop-and-go driving also increases fuel use. JB
1. Low tire pressure.
2. Driving with luggage mounted on the roof.
3. Short trips with frequent stops and starts.
