Driver duties and responsibilityQuestion #15654
Are you allowed to get out of the car while an officer is checking your documents?
Explanation
The rules set out a clear way of dealing with an officer carrying out a check. You must hand over your documents without getting out of the vehicle. You may step out only once the officer clearly allows it. This keeps both the driver and the officer safe.
KET reference: KET 16: The driver must hand documents to the checking officer without getting out of the vehicle, and may step out only with the officer's permission.
