What element is mandatory in all motor vehicles to be allowed to drive on public roads?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The General Vehicle Regulations establish that every motor vehicle must be equipped with an explosion silencing system (commonly known as a muffler/exhaust silencer) to prevent noise exceeding regulatory limits. Driving motor vehicles with an 'open exhaust' (without a silencer) or with devices that nullify its action is prohibited. Regarding the incorrect options: A fire extinguisher is only mandatory in vehicles intended for goods transport (trucks), passenger transport (buses), or heavy vehicle combinations, but not in private cars or motorcycles. A set of spare belts is no longer a mandatory spare part due to the technical complexity involved in replacing them in modern engines.
