A1Difficulty 3/5

Under Annex III of the General Vehicle Regulations, which exterior mirrors are listed as mandatory for a motorcycle with a maximum design speed of 100 km/h or less?

Correct answer

The left mirror; the right mirror is listed as optional.

The left mirror is mandatory and the right mirror is listed as optional in that table. If maximum speed exceeds 100 km/h, the table requires both. The criterion is the vehicle’s maximum speed, rather than its speed at a particular moment. Also comply with the vehicle’s type approval and technical conditions; a minimum stated in the table does not authorise removing equipment required by those conditions.
