Keeping registration plates in good condition and ensuring their legibility:
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
B. Is the responsibility of the driver.
Explanation
The question is about keeping registration plates in proper condition and making sure they are legible. This is the obligation of the driver - answer B.
The Road Traffic Act states directly that keeping the registration plates and other required vehicle markings in proper condition and making sure they are legible is the obligation of the driver of the vehicle. It is not about appearance (answer A) - an illegible plate makes it impossible to identify the vehicle, for example after an accident or by a speed camera. The obligation lies with the person driving the vehicle, not with its owner (answer C) - because it is the driver who is on the road and can clean the plate at any time. In winter and after driving through mud, you check before setting off that the plates are clean and visible. It is also prohibited to cover or decorate them.
