Description
Art. 66 para. 1 pt. 1 of the Act of 20 June 1997 - Road Traffic Act (consolidated text: Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137, as amended) in conjunction with § 2 para. 4 pt. 3 of the Regulation of the Minister of Transport, Construction and Maritime Economy of 26 June 2012 on the scope and manner of conducting technical inspections of vehicles and the templates of documents used in these inspections (item 996).
Explanation
Correct answer: Burnt out light bulb of the left rear indicator.
Any defect in the external lighting, e.g., a blown bulb in the dipped headlights, brake lights, or indicators, makes it unsafe to use the vehicle. According to Art. 66 of the Road Traffic Act, a vehicle must be maintained in such a way that it does not endanger other road users. Faulty lighting makes you invisible or your intentions unclear to others, which creates a serious risk of a collision.
