A vehicle can be driven by a person other than the owner, but with the owner’s consent. Therefore, since this is not prohibited, it will not be sanctioned with penalty points or with the application of another sanction.
It must be known that at the request of the traffic police or the local police, the owner or the mandated holder of a vehicle is obliged to communicate to it, within the term indicated in the content of the request, the identification data of the person to whom he entrusted the vehicle to drive it on public roads. Failure to comply with this obligation constitutes a contravention and is sanctioned with the fine provided in class IV of sanctions.
Driving on public roads a vehicle without having mounted one of the license plates or registration plates constitutes a contravention and is sanctioned with the fine provided in class IV of sanctions, with the application of 6 penalty points and with the retention of the registration or recording certificate, a replacement proof with the right of circulation for 15 days being issued.
If the emissions released by the engine reach the legally permitted limit, therefore do not exceed it, the motor vehicle can circulate. If this is not prohibited, because the emissions released by the engine do NOT exceed the legally permitted limit, it will not be sanctioned with penalty points or with the application of another sanction.
The correct answer is: B
OUG* - Article 39
(1) At the request of the traffic police or the local police, the owner or the mandated holder of a vehicle is obliged to communicate to it, within the term indicated in the content of the request, the identification data of the person to whom he entrusted the vehicle to drive it on public roads. The local police may request this identification data only in connection with the exercise of competences in the field of traffic on public roads.
(2) The obligation to communicate the identification data, provided in paragraph (1), is considered fulfilled if the owner or the mandated holder of a vehicle communicates the name, surname, personal numeric code, domicile or residence, number and series of the identity document of the person to whom he entrusted the vehicle to drive it on public roads or, in the case of foreign citizens, stateless persons or Romanian citizens with domicile abroad, also the series and number of the passport or of another state border crossing document, the date of its issuance and the issuing state.
