When a vehicle is forced to stop on an inter-urban road and the driver or one of the passengers is about to exit the vehicle:
- The driver must wear a vest when exiting the vehicle, only if other vehicles are on the road.
- Correct answer: The first person to get out of the vehicle must wear a standard fluorescent vest when exiting the vehicle or stepping out of it.
- No obligation applies to this situation. Wearing a vest is obligatory on an urban road only.
- Only the driver is obliged to wear a vest, and not any other person exiting the vehicle.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: The first person to get out of the vehicle must wear a standard fluorescent vest when exiting the vehicle or stepping out of it.
When a vehicle stops on an inter-urban road, whoever gets out first must wear a standard fluorescent vest, whether that person is the driver or a passenger. The vest makes a person on the roadside clearly visible to drivers approaching at high speed, by day and by night. The duty applies even when the road looks empty, because traffic can appear suddenly.
