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.

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;

As the ambient temperature decreases, the battery capacity of the battery decreases. A fully charged battery has a capacity of 100% at +25 °C, so at 0 °C the battery capacity will drop to 80% and at -25 °C it will be only 60%.

82. A driver must signal intended maneuvers using the vehicle's turn signals, or by arm signals if the electrical indicators are inoperative or unavailable: 82.1 before starting to move and before stopping; 82.2 before changing lanes, before and after overtaking, before and after passing an obstruction, before turning right or left, before making a U-turn, and before exiting a roundabout.

The letter 'R' denotes a radial tyre construction. In a radial tyre, the carcass cords run from one bead to the other in a radial direction instead of being wrapped around the bead cores. Thin, flexible crown plies provide the tread area with the required rigidity and flexibility while minimizing elastic deformation.

Select the signs that indicate the car battery may be dead.

If a 'STOP' road sign is present, drivers must stop before the sign and yield to vehicles traveling on the road they are about to cross. RTR 154. At a controlled intersection, drivers entering from a side road must yield to vehicles on the priority road. RTR Annex 1. 204. 'STOP'. Drivers must not proceed without stopping before the stop line or, if there is no stop line, before the sign. A driver must give way to vehicles on the road being crossed. If additional plate No. 843 'Direction of Priority Road' is mounted below the sign, the driver must yield to vehicles on the priority road.

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.

Driving licences issued in Lithuania, in other EU Member States, and in certain other countries are recognised in Lithuania. This question, however, asks whether a person may drive in Lithuania without a valid driving licence (including one issued abroad). The correct answer is “No”. LAW ON ROAD TRAFFIC SAFETY — Article 13(1): Persons who do not have the right to drive a motor vehicle, tractor, or self-propelled work machine; who are intoxicated; who are under the influence of narcotic, psychotropic or other psychoactive substances; or who have not taken the legally required daily rest must not drive. In addition, a person who is fatigued or ill must not drive if doing so could endanger road safety. A vehicle must not be entrusted to a person affected by any of the factors listed above or who is not authorised to drive that type of vehicle.

RTR 195. Drivers must not: 195.1. carry more passengers than are permitted by the vehicle's technical specifications; JB

When you see a pothole, reduce your speed and try to steer around it. If avoidance is impossible and an impact cannot be prevented, release the brakes just before the pothole and straighten the steering — this reduces the chance of damaging the tire or suspension components.

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 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.

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. 

An anti-lock braking system (ABS) prevents wheel lockup during heavy braking, helping to maintain tire traction and steering control—especially on slippery surfaces. When wheels lock, the vehicle can skid and the driver may lose the ability to steer. ABS modulates brake pressure to preserve grip and directional stability.

If you press the accelerator suddenly on a slippery road, the driving wheels may start to spin, further smoothing and polishing the wheel track on the slippery surface. This reduces traction; as a result the tires can lose grip more quickly and the vehicle may skid or slide sideways.

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.

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.

206. The driver must ensure the safety of pets in the vehicle and make sure they are transported in a way that does not interfere with driving and does not cause injury to the animals or to vehicle occupants if the vehicle stops suddenly.

LAW ON ROAD TRAFFIC SAFETY, Article 2, item 43. Intoxication — the state of a person who has consumed ethyl alcohol, when the concentration of that alcohol in the body's biological media (exhaled air, blood, urine, saliva or other bodily fluids) exceeds the legal limit. The maximum permitted concentration of ethyl alcohol in the exhaled air, blood, urine, saliva or other bodily fluids of persons driving vehicles is 0.4 per mille. Novice drivers, taxi drivers, and drivers of mopeds, motorcycles, tricycles, light quadricycles, four-wheel power quadricycles, vehicles with a maximum permissible weight over 3.5 t or with more than 9 seats, and drivers transporting dangerous goods are considered intoxicated when the concentration of ethyl alcohol in their exhaled air, blood, urine, saliva or other bodily fluids is greater than 0 per mille. JB

On unlit roads it is permitted to use high‑beam headlights. According to regulation RTR 95, during hours of darkness or in conditions of poor visibility high beams must be switched to low beam on illuminated roads (see 95.1).

Outside built-up areas, a driver may warn others when overtaking by flashing the high or low beams (provided this does not dazzle other road users) or by sounding the horn. Within built-up areas, flashing the lights is permitted if it does not dazzle others; sounding the horn is prohibited except when necessary to avoid a traffic accident. RTR — 89.

Drivers should be prepared for unexpected behavior from children at pedestrian crossings. When children act predictably and responsibly, it improves road safety.

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.

48. A trailer is a vehicle designed to be towed by a motor vehicle. Semi-trailers are also regarded as trailers. 52. A semi-trailer is a trailer coupled to a motor vehicle in such a way that part of its weight and the weight of its load are borne by the motor vehicle.

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

Carrying unnecessary luggage increases fuel consumption and causes additional harmful emissions. Loud music from a vehicle contributes to noise pollution and can scare wildlife. For short trips, people can walk, cycle, or use public transport, because during brief journeys the engine often does not reach its optimal operating temperature, the vehicle runs less efficiently, and pollution is higher.

Dipped-beam headlamps are not necessary if daytime running lamps are on (not all vehicles are fitted with them). RTR 10. Road users must not arbitrarily move, cover, remove, or install traffic control devices that establish traffic procedures, block the road, leave any objects on the road, or otherwise interfere with the traffic, destroy the road, traffic control devices, outdoor emergency communication systems, and planted lawn, block the road leading to a fire hydrant or other installed rescue equipment or otherwise hinder access to them, throw anything out of the vehicle, litter, discharge lubricants in undesignated places, or otherwise pollute the environment.

If the road surface is slippery or the engine delivers strong torque and the revs increase abruptly, the driven wheels can spin. When the driven wheels are at the rear, the rear axle may lose traction; when they are at the front, the front axle may lose traction, which can cause the vehicle to lose stability and skid.
