Vehicle MaintenanceDifficulty: 3/5
You are about to start a long motorway journey in a car you have not driven before. The engine starts normally and there are no warning lights showing. According to the Highway Code, what is the MOST important reason for adjusting your seat, steering wheel and mirrors before setting off?
Explanation
Highway Code Rule 97 states that before setting off you should ensure that your vehicle is safe and comfortable to drive. This includes adjusting your seat, steering wheel and mirrors so you can use all the controls correctly and have a full view of the road and traffic around you. This is primarily about safety and control, not fuel economy or passenger comfort, so option A is correct.
