Lights, concentration and basic checks before a journey.

Objective

• Before setting off, check visibility, lights and the vehicle’s general condition.

Key points

1. Use the required lighting when conditions call for it.
2. Tiredness and distraction reduce your ability to notice risks.
3. Before leaving, check that the vehicle is in suitable condition.
