KET Užduotys · Accepted Answer

Correct answer: Only as long as it takes to get the car ready to drive (e.g. clearing snow)..

Once the car is ready, the engine goes off.. KET reference: KET 176.2: In a residential zone you may not stand with the engine running any longer than is needed to get the vehicle ready to drive.
