Is it allowed to carry someone in a moving trailer or camper trailer?
  • No
  • Yes, for adults

No

These vehicles aren't designed to protect passengers.

On a road with several lanes in the same direction, you should normally:
  • Change lanes often to move along faster
  • Drive on the right and pass on the left
  • Stay in the left lane at all times
  • Straddle two lanes so others see you

Drive on the right and pass on the left

The left lane is mainly for passing.

While driving, a display screen (phone, GPS) must be:
  • Held in your hand to see the screen
  • Mounted on a holder, and not handled
  • Placed on your lap to keep it handy
  • Stuck in the middle of the windshield

Mounted on a holder, and not handled

Set your route before you leave.

A vehicle's stopping distance is made up of:
  • Only the driver's reaction time
  • Only the vehicle's braking distance
  • Reaction distance plus braking distance
  • The length of the vehicle and any trailer

Reaction distance plus braking distance

Fatigue or alcohol make your reaction time longer.

When turning right with a bike lane beside your lane, you must:
  • Check your blind spot and yield to cyclists
  • Drive in the bike lane before turning
  • Honk so the cyclist stops
  • Turn quickly in front of the cyclist

Check your blind spot and yield to cyclists

Crashes with cyclists often happen during right turns.

Your vehicle skids. What should you do?
  • Brake as hard as you can until you stop
  • Jerk the wheel sharply the other way
  • Look and steer where you want to go
  • Speed up hard to regain control

Look and steer where you want to go

Keep your movements smooth.

When should you turn on your headlights instead of relying on daytime running lights?
  • At night and whenever visibility is poor
  • Never; daytime running lights are always enough
  • Only in winter, from December to March
  • Only on an autoroute, in daytime

At night and whenever visibility is poor

Daytime running lights don't always turn on the tail lights.

Before lending your vehicle, check that the person:
  • Has their own car insurance policy
  • Holds a valid licence of the right class
  • Is over 30 and has lots of experience
  • Knows the route they will take well

The owner may be held responsible.
