Mandatory car equipment

After driving school, have you ever thought about mandatory car equipment or its duration?

Do you know what is meant by additional vehicle safety equipment and do you know that the traffic police can fine you if certain equipment is missing or expired? If you haven't, don't worry, we're here to guide you.

  • The first and most important thing is the FIRST AID BOX, which must never be opened/used and must have a valid expiration date. Keep in mind that most first aid kits have a shelf life of around 5 years
  • In addition to the first aid kit, you must have a REFLECTIVE VEST in the vehicle, which must be worn in case the vehicle breaks down every time you leave the vehicle on the road outside the village or on the highway, in order to be more visible to other drivers.
  • Of course, in addition to the above, it is necessary to have a SAFETY TRIANGLE in the vehicle, which should be placed at a distance of more than 100 meters in the event of an accident.
  • Also, if your vehicle is equipped with light fixtures with filaments/halogen bulbs, you must have a SPARE SET OF HALOGEN BULBS for your vehicle, H1, H4 or H7
  • And last but not least, if your vehicle belongs to a company or is under a leasing contract, your vehicle must have a FIRE EXTINGUISHER that needs to be serviced every year
