Correct answer
A. A valid driving licence retention receipt.
Explanation
The question is about the document that the driver of a vehicle registered in Poland who holds a Polish driving licence must carry. They must have a valid receipt for the retention of the driving licence - answer A.
The Road Traffic Act requires the driver to carry and show, among other things, a receipt for the retention of the driving licence, during the period in which it entitles them to drive. The receipt is then the only proof that, although the document has been retained, you are still allowed to drive, for example for 24 hours or 7 days. You do not have to carry the document confirming the right to drive (answer B), that is, a Polish driving licence. You also do not have to carry proof of payment of the third-party liability insurance (OC) premium (answer C) for a vehicle registered in Poland - the police check the insurance in the central vehicle register.
