You must have two dyadic glass in Spain, a biker must wear a set of clothes in Belgium, and when you park the vehicle in Estonia on a hill, you must secure it with a wedge. Did you know that? For all the differences in the required equipment, we have focused and made a comprehensive overview for you.
Frequently, the driver thinks he or she is required to carry out the required equipment, as in the Czech Republic, and argues this fact either by the Vienna Convention or the Geneva Convention. The problem is that these conventions only mention the technical equipment of the vehicle, not mandatory equipment of the vehicle. Therefore, we have to equip the vehicle differently in every state.
Belgium
Motorcyclists must wear protective clothing: gloves, jacket with long sleeves, trousers with long trousers and ankle protection shoes. The reflective vest is mandatory only for motor vehicle drivers. The fire extinguisher is mandatory for vehicles registered in Belgium, for foreign vehicles it is only a recommendation.
Bulgaria
All vehicles, except motorcycles, must be equipped with a fire extinguisher. Reflective safety vests are mandatory for anyone who comes out of the vehicle during an emergency, even for bikers.
Croatia
Children under the age of 12 must not travel to the front seats. An exception is children up to 2 years of age in the “egg” and the airbag off. Motorcycles or mopeds are not allowed to carry children under 12 years of age. Vehicles with a trailer must have 2 triangles. The reflective clothing is mandatory only for motor vehicle drivers.
