Question 44 in the bank

After parking your car besides the pavement, on the right side of an urban road:

  1. You should verify that the passenger sitting in the left back seat gets out very carefully from the car to the road.
  2. You should verify that the maximal distance between the car and the pavement is one meter.
  3. Correct answer: Before getting out of the car, you should verify that this will not disturb any road user.
  4. If the street is not lit, you should turn on the parking lights.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: Before getting out of the car, you should verify that this will not disturb any road user.

Opening a door and getting out of a parked car may hit a cyclist, a motorcyclist or a vehicle passing next to you. So before getting out, look in the mirrors and behind you, and make sure that getting out will not disturb any road user.
