Question 73 in the bank

Is it permitted to drive an un-roadworthy vehicle?

  1. Yes, if the malfunction doesn’t involve the vehicle’s brake system
  2. Correct answer: It is forbidden to drive an un-roadworthy vehicle that cannot be fully controlled
  3. Yes, if the malfunction involves the vehicle’s lighting system only
  4. Yes, if the malfunction involves the vehicle’s steering system only

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: It is forbidden to drive an un-roadworthy vehicle that cannot be fully controlled

It is forbidden to drive a vehicle that is not roadworthy and that cannot be fully controlled, because this endangers the driver and the other road users. A fault in the brakes or the steering directly harms the ability to control the vehicle. So you must not continue driving before the fault is repaired.
