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.

The parking brake may be used to help slow the vehicle if the service (main) brakes fail.

Driving smoothly and in a civilised manner is important to avoid unnecessary noise. Sudden engine revs, hard braking or wheel locks make loud noises and disturb others. Knocking on doors or unnecessary use of the horn violates the principle of public order. Such actions not only cause noise pollution but also indicate irresponsible driving behaviour.

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.

When you see traffic sign 636 — Automatic traffic control (part of the Advanced Traffic Management System) and you are traveling 10 km/h above the speed limit, ease off the accelerator so your speed drops to the legal limit and you avoid a possible fine. Sign 636 indicates a road section monitored by fixed automatic devices. The first version of the sign warns of devices that detect various traffic rule violations (except speed violations); the second version denotes a section where fixed devices record speed limit violations and, where technically feasible, other infringements.

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.

The parking brake may be used only in emergency situations (to prevent a collision) or if the foot brake fails.

RTR 165 p. When a prohibitory traffic signal or a traffic regulator's signal is displayed, the driver must stop before the 'Stop line' road sign and/or before the marked stop line. If neither is present, the driver must stop before the traffic light, before the junction or the connecting carriageway, before a pedestrian crossing, or before a bicycle crossing, in such a position that does not obstruct vehicular or pedestrian traffic.

RTR 144. Vehicles must stop and park on the carriageway in a single line. RTR 145. Motorcycles without a sidecar, mopeds, bicycles, and electric micromobility devices may be parked in two lines provided such parking does not obstruct traffic.

RTR 26. Drivers of other vehicles must not enter the space between a learner driver—who is learning to operate a moped, motorcycle, tricycle, or any type of quadricycle—and the driving instructor who is accompanying the learner in a vehicle. During the training period the learner must wear a high-visibility vest marked with the distinguishing sign 'M' on both the front and the back. A driving instructor who accompanies the learner on a motorcycle must also wear a vest of the same type bearing the words 'DRIVING INSTRUCTOR'. If the instructor accompanies the learner in a car, the car must display the identifying marking specified in Annex 4 of these Rules.

On roads with four or more lanes, a double solid line separates opposing traffic flows. It prohibits driving in lanes that carry traffic in the opposite direction on the marked section; vehicles must not cross this line.

RTR 196. All passengers and the driver must wear seat belts when traveling in vehicles equipped with them. If a bus is fitted with seat belts, visible signs reading "Fasten Your Seat Belt" must be displayed in front of every seat, on the seat, or next to it. It is recommended that all bus passengers be informed of the requirement to wear seat belts verbally or by audio-visual means before the journey begins. 198. Within built-up areas, a driver is permitted not to fasten the seat belt while reversing or when in parking areas. 205. Persons who, for serious medical reasons, hold special permits issued by competent authorities are exempt from wearing seat belts. These permits must include an expiry date.

The higher a vehicle's center of gravity (for example, when carrying tall loads or items on the roof), the greater the risk of rollover when cornering.

The AM category is sufficient to drive these vehicles, but it is not the only entitlement that allows you to do so. Possessing another driving category that authorises operation of such vehicles also permits you to drive them. LAW ON ROAD TRAFFIC SAFETY — Article 2. Basic concepts of the Law: 30. Light quadricycle means a four-wheeled motor vehicle with an unladen mass (excluding batteries if it is an electric vehicle) not exceeding 350 kg, a maximum design speed not exceeding 45 km/h, an engine capacity not exceeding 50 cm3 (for a spark-ignition engine), a maximum net power not exceeding 4 kW (for another type of internal combustion engine), and a maximum rated power not exceeding 4 kW (for an electric motor). 33. Moped means a two-wheeled motor vehicle with a maximum design speed exceeding 25 km/h and not exceeding 45 km/h, an engine capacity not exceeding 50 cm3 (for an internal combustion engine), and a maximum net power not exceeding 4 kW (for an electric motor); or a three-wheeled motor vehicle with a maximum design speed exceeding 25 km/h and not exceeding 45 km/h, an engine capacity not exceeding 50 cm3 (for a spark-ignition engine), a maximum net power not exceeding 4 kW (for another type of internal combustion engine), and a maximum net power not exceeding 4 kW (for an electric motor). LAW ON ROAD TRAFFIC SAFETY — Article 23. Categories of motor vehicles and the minimum driving age: 1. Categories of motor vehicles and their combinations with trailers: 1) Category AM: mopeds and light quadricycles;

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.

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.

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.

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.

RTR 5. Road users must be familiar with the Law on Road Traffic Safety of the Republic of Lithuania, be acquainted with these Rules, and comply with them. JB

RTR 92. If the emergency warning light 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 place an emergency stop sign on the carriageway side opposite to the direction of travel: in settlements, not closer than 25 m, and outside settlements, not closer than 50 m from the stopped vehicle. If at least one rear position lamp is defective and the hazard warning lights do not work while driving in darkness or poor visibility, an emergency stop sign must be attached to the rear of the vehicle in order to continue driving. RTR 151. When a vehicle is forced to stop where standing or parking is forbidden, drivers must switch on 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 drivers intend to stop on unlit road sections at night or in poor visibility and hazard warning lights are unavailable or inoperable, the vehicle must be parked off the carriageway. If this is impossible, the place must be marked as specified in Paragraph 92 of the Rules. JB

RTR 17. At the request of a police officer, a driver must submit to tests for alcohol intoxication or for intoxication caused by narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances, or other psychoactive substances, in the manner prescribed by the Government of the Republic of Lithuania. RTR 14. It is prohibited to drive a vehicle if you are not authorized to do so, if you are under the influence of alcohol, narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances or other psychoactive substances. A person who is fatigued or ill must not drive if driving may endanger road safety. A vehicle must not be entrusted to a person who is under the influence of such factors or who is not authorized to drive that type of vehicle. When operating a vehicle, the driver must comply with the conditions specified on the driving licence. 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.

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.

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.

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.

RTR 15. Driving vehicles that are not in good condition and that do not meet the technical requirements for vehicles (hereinafter referred to as "technical requirements") is prohibited. Before setting off, the driver of a motor vehicle, tractor, or self-propelled machine must ensure the vehicle is in proper condition and that it carries a warning triangle, fire extinguisher, first aid kit, and any other items required for specific vehicle types. The driver must also monitor the vehicle's technical condition during the trip. If the vehicle breaks down while driving and therefore does not meet the technical requirements and cannot be repaired, the driver may proceed to the nearest parking area or vehicle repair facility, taking all necessary precautions, except in the cases specified in paragraph 234 of these Rules.

Vehicle documents should not be left in the vehicle, as they can be readily used by thieves. Valuable items must not be left in plain view inside the vehicle because they may attract opportunistic burglaries. Leaving liquids, such as soft drinks, inside the vehicle does not compromise its safety. (RTR 147) A driver may leave the vehicle unattended only after ensuring it cannot move on its own and that unauthorised use is prevented.

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;

RTR 86. Warning signals must be given sufficiently in advance of a manoeuvre (including any braking related to it) and must be discontinued immediately after the manoeuvre is completed (hand signals may be stopped just before the manoeuvre). A signal must be given so that it does not mislead other road users. Turn signals are not used when entering a roundabout.
