The rules of the road are very important in order to avoid fines for our car, and in addition to the corresponding fines for exceeding speedthere are many others that can make you not wear a seatbelt or carry a cell phone in your hand while driving.
For this DHT He is quite active on social networks like Twitter where they run a series of tests or games for all their followers several times and the last move didn’t go well.
The latest game that DGT offered to all of its Twitter followers asked them to find a series of violations that fines in vignette, and while providing solutions, they weren’t entirely clear, accepting a few corrections from other users along the way.
And the fact is that the original DGT vignette asked us to find out how many violations there are in a particular scene where we observe a motorcycle and automobile on a dual carriageway, a couple walking with a girl about to cross a zebra, or a young man riding a scooter on the sidewalk.
How many violations do you see?
Find out in the next tweet if you found everything… and let us know in the comments how many you guessed!

Offering a solution, they noted that motorcycle riders should always wear a helmet. So far, so good.
Another violation, they allege, is that “it is forbidden to talk on the phone while driving“. While the third violation is that “people who use an electric scooter cannot ride on the sidewalk and must always wear a helmet“. There is a contradiction in these two.
Corrections from your own followers
And the fact is that these solutions are not exactly concise and can lead to an error, and some subscribers of the account wanted to take the opportunity to fix DGT, which took it quite well.
And the fact is that DGT does not guarantee that “it is mandatory to wear a helmet to ride an electric scooter” and in addition, he ignores that the driver is wearing headphones. The Electric Scooter Manufacturers Association notes that “Drivers of this type of vehicle are not required to wear a helmet unless mandated by municipal ordinances.“.
IMPORTANT
You caught our mistake, because during the VMP, the use of a helmet is not required (although we recommend it
) and the use of headphones is prohibited
. You are all experts in #Road safety!

DGT is also wrong in saying that it is illegal to talk on the phone while driving. what is punishable is talking on the phone while holding the device in your hand.
As we said, given the criticism received from users, DGT posted another tweet acknowledging their mistakes and congratulating those subscribers who found mistakes, even unwanted mistakes.
In this way, DGT, through vignettes and pitying its social media followers, refreshes the memory of traffic law issues that go beyond speeding.
