Question 948 of 1208

When setting the vehicle in motion from a standstill, the following obligations apply to you:

A to avoid excessive revving of the engine;
B to avoid jerking the vehicle controls;
C to give priority to the vehicles that move on the road, regardless of the direction of travel.

Explanation

For answer  A 

The road legislation does not expressly prohibit excessive revving of the engine when setting the vehicle in motion from a standstill. However, if this revving is produced intentionally by repeated acceleration of the engine, of a nature to disturb the persons located in the area of the public road, it falls under aggressive driving and is prohibited according to article 54^1 paragraph (2) letter i) of OUG 195/2002 (posted below).


For answer  B 

The road legislation does not provide an obligation or a prohibition related to jerking the vehicle controls. However, from the point of view of preventive driving, jerking the vehicle controls is not recommended.


For answer  C 

When you want to set the vehicle in motion, you have the obligation to signal the maneuver in time, to give priority to all vehicles that move on the public road, regardless of their direction of travel, as well as the obligation to make sure that you can perform the maneuver without disturbing the traffic or without endangering the safety of the other traffic participants.
