It is necessary to move only with a fastened motorcycle helmet, use protective equipment, move with low beam headlights — this requirement applies to all types of vehicles, including motorcycles, choose a safe speed, keep a distance and lateral interval when maneuvering. When moving in the dark or in conditions of poor visibility, it is advisable to have items with reflective elements on your clothes.
The State Traffic Safety Inspectorate warns that in cases where motor vehicles are driven by persons who do not have a driver’s license, or who are intoxicated, the vehicle will be detained and placed in a specialized parking lot.
It is important to remember that the key condition for safe travel on motor vehicles is strict compliance with the Traffic Regulations and respect for other road users.
