RTR 30. When approaching an uncontrolled pedestrian crossing, a driver must slow down or stop before the crossing to yield to pedestrians who have stepped into any lane, are moving within any lane, or are standing immediately before a lane (at the edge of the roadway) waiting for the opportunity to step into that lane in the direction of the vehicle’s travel or into any lane on a road with one lane in each direction. Drivers must take extra precautions during hours of darkness, when visibility is poor, or whenever a pedestrian crossing is not clearly visible from the driver’s position, and must ensure there are no pedestrians who should be given way at the crossing.

RTR 116. U-turns are prohibited: 116.1 on pedestrian crossings; 116.2 on level crossings; 116.3 in tunnels; 116.4 on and beneath bridges, overpasses and viaducts; 116.5 where visibility in at least one direction is less than 100 metres; 116.6 on roads with a central reservation, except at locations designated and marked for U-turns by road signs and/or road markings. JB

RTR 112. When an acceleration lane is provided for entering a roadway, the driver must use it to gain speed and merge into the main traffic flow, yielding to vehicles already on the road. The driver may change lanes as necessary or enter a deceleration lane when appropriate. JB

A category B driving licence entitles the holder to drive vehicles of category AM (mopeds and light quadricycles). LAW ON ROAD TRAFFIC SAFETY Article 23. 1. Categories of motor vehicles and their combinations with trailers are as follows: 1) Category AM: mopeds and light quadricycles; 5) Category B1: quadricycles. 4. A driving licence that entitles a person to drive: 1) vehicles referred to in Subparagraphs 2–16 of Paragraph 2 of this Article also entitles the holder to drive vehicles of category AM; 4) vehicles of categories B, C, or D also entitle the holder to drive vehicles of categories B1, C1, or D1.

Braking distance depends on the condition of the tyres, the vehicle's speed, the road surface, the vehicle's weight, the force applied to the brake pedal, and the condition of the braking system. Less worn tyres provide more effective braking. Lower speeds reduce stopping distance. Heavier vehicles require a longer distance to stop. Rougher road surfaces increase traction and therefore shorten stopping distance. Applying greater pressure to the brake pedal generally shortens stopping distance, provided you avoid locking the wheels.

Heavy rain forms a layer of water on the asphalt surface (especially where longitudinal ruts are pressed), which is not able to drain so quickly to the side of the road. If we drive fast in such conditions, the tire tread can't squeeze the layer of water formed on the road from under the wheel and the so-called aquaplaning (water wedge) begins. In other words, the car's wheels no longer touch or have a worse grip on the asphalt surface and the car can become out of control. JB

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.

RTR 77.2. Right arm extended forward: 77.2.1. Vehicles on the left side of the traffic officer may proceed in any direction; 77.2.2. Vehicles facing the traffic officer may proceed only to the right; 77.2.3. Vehicles behind the traffic officer and on the right side must not proceed; 77.2.4. Pedestrians may cross the carriageway behind the traffic officer.

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;

Long journeys can cause the driver to become distracted and fatigued for extended periods, which reduces reaction time and concentration and increases the risk of mistakes. It is recommended to take breaks every 1.5 to 2 hours or after driving approximately 200 kilometres. Sitting for long periods can lead to muscle tension and poor circulation, so getting out of the vehicle helps relax the body and improve well‑being. Exiting the car or opening a window to breathe fresh air can refresh the mind, restore energy and improve concentration.

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.

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

According to the Lithuanian Road Administration, in 2017, 68.83 percent of all traffic offenders were drivers. A slippery road is one of the traffic safety hazards, however, drivers can take into account the conditions, choose a safe driving speed and avoid a road accident.

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; 219.3. at the request of other road users involved, present a valid identity document or driving licence and a certificate (policy) of compulsory motor third-party liability insurance to identify the insurer; 219.4. if a person has been injured or has died in the accident, report the accident to the police and remain at the scene, or after notifying the police return and wait for them, except where the police permit departure or where the casualties or the person reporting the accident require immediate first aid; 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.

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.

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.

Braking with uneven tire wear between the left and right sides is dangerous because it can cause the vehicle to slide off the road and overturn.

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.

Passengers may be carried in a towed vehicle except when the vehicle is being towed with its front or rear supported on a towing platform or other support device. Regulation 195 states that drivers must not: 195.4. carry passengers inside a bus, trolleybus, or the body of a goods vehicle that is being towed; if the front or rear of a vehicle is resting on a support device, passengers must not be inside the vehicle or in its cargo body.

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.

Compared with coasting (driving in neutral), driving with a gear engaged provides better control because, even without pressing the accelerator, the engine maintains steady rotational force on the driven wheels. Rapidly reducing speed during a turn can make the vehicle less stable, while increasing speed can make it harder to complete the turn smoothly due to the higher centrifugal force. Choose and maintain an appropriate speed before entering the turn.

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.

Under Article 23 of the Law on Road Traffic Safety, there are two ways to obtain a category A (motorcycle) driving licence. You may obtain category A from the age of 24 without prior experience. Alternatively, from the age of 20 you may obtain category A if you have at least two years' qualifying experience riding category A2 motorcycles. The two-year A2 experience requirement does not apply to applicants aged 24 or older. Separately, the right to drive tricycles (three-wheelers) with power exceeding 15 kW is granted from the age of 21.

RTR 3.1. "Service vehicles" are vehicles owned by companies, institutions, or organisations operating in an area marked by restrictive signs; vehicles belonging to persons who live or work in that area; vehicles delivering goods to that area or collecting goods from it; and taxis or other passenger vehicles providing paid transport to or from that area.

According to data from the Lithuanian Road Administration, in 2017 drivers accounted for 68.83% of all individuals found responsible for road accidents.

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

A vehicle's braking system is intended to slow the vehicle, bring it to a complete stop, and hold it stationary. Braking distance should be kept as short as possible, and you must maintain control of the vehicle while braking.

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.

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 are as follows: 6) Category B: vehicles with a maximum permissible mass not exceeding 3,500 kg designed and constructed to carry no more than eight passengers, excluding the driver; these vehicles may be coupled with a trailer whose maximum permissible mass does not exceed 750 kg; they may also be coupled with a trailer whose maximum permissible mass exceeds 750 kg, provided that the maximum permissible mass of the combined vehicle does not exceed 4,250 kg; a vehicle combination with a maximum permissible mass exceeding 3,500 kg (including a trailer with a maximum permissible mass exceeding 750 kg) may be driven only after passing a skills and behaviour test at the state enterprise "Regitra". LAW ON ROAD TRAFFIC SAFETY Article 22. Granting the right to drive motor vehicles, tractors, self-propelled machines: 12. Persons who are at least 24 years old, who have at least 2 years of driving experience in category B vehicles and who have completed practical driving training for category A1 vehicles in accordance with the procedure established by the Ministry of Transport or its authorised institution, are granted the right to drive category A1 vehicles in the territory of the Republic of Lithuania. As a result, the driver's licence does not explicitly state entitlement to drive category A1 vehicles; instead, the national code set by the Ministry of the Interior is shown next to the category B marking.
