Is driving a tram without covers on the couplings between the carriages from the side of the passenger doors permitted?

Explanation

Correct answer: It is permitted provided there are markings on the couplers indicating prohibition of entry between the carriages.

Regulations concerning the technical conditions of vehicles permit such a solution, considering it sufficient to ensure safety. A coupling guard is not strictly required if a clear marking is present in its place. This marking, which indicates the prohibition on stepping between the carriages, serves a warning and protective function for passengers.
