What documents are you obliged to carry with you and present at the request of the relevant authority during roadside inspections?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
B. A driving license retention receipt for the period it permits the driver to drive.
Explanation
The question is about the documents you must carry with you during a roadside check. It is the receipt for the retention of a driving licence, for the period in which it authorises driving - answer B.
The Road Traffic Act requires a driver to carry and show, at the request of an authorised body, the required documents, including: a document confirming the right to drive other than a driving licence issued in Poland, a certificate of the technical inspection of an alcohol interlock, its calibration document, a receipt for the retention of a driving licence, of a vehicle registration certificate or of a temporary permit for the period in which it authorises driving or using the vehicle, and a driver qualification card, if it is required. When a police officer retains a driving licence, they issue a receipt which in some cases still allows you to drive for a specified time - 24 hours or 7 days. The medical certificate from answer A is not a document carried in the car: its result goes into the driver's file and the register, and a driver who carries passengers for payment shows it to the employer, not to a police officer on the road. The psychological fitness certificate from answer C works the same way.
