BDifficulty 2/5

When parking a manual-transmission car on level ground and walking away, what must the driver do, among other measures?

Correct answer

take the necessary precautions to prevent it being used without authorisation.

Take the necessary precautions to prevent unauthorised use under article 92.3.a. When leaving the driving position, stop the engine, disconnect the starting system and apply the parking brake. Follow the vehicle instructions for safe immobilisation. There is no general requirement to chock every car on level ground, and P applies to vehicles equipped with that position. Precautions against unauthorised use do not guarantee that a vehicle can never be stolen.
