For answer A
The driver of a motor vehicle, agricultural or forestry tractor or tram is obliged to allow the inspection of the technical condition of the vehicle, as well as of the transported goods. This inspection of the technical condition of the vehicles in traffic on public roads is carried out by the traffic police officer, together with the institutions empowered by law.
The use of the mobile phone by the passengers of the vehicle is allowed. Is prohibited the driver of the vehicle to use mobile phones while driving, except for those provided with “hands-free” devices. Therefore, the driver is not responsible for the use of the phone by the passengers, and this option does not reflect a real legal obligation. Therefore, answer B is wrong
Traffic legislation does not provide any obligation for the drivers of motor vehicles to transport traffic police officers, even if they request it. This idea is sometimes encountered among drivers, but it is a myth, having no legal basis in the Road Traffic Code.
