In Danish traffic rules, what is the maximum permitted engine idling time (tomgang) when stationary in most Danish municipalities?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D. 1 minute (according to local municipal environmental bylaws)
- Step 1: Most Danish municipal environmental regulations (such as Copenhagen, Aarhus, Odense) limit unnecessary motor vehicle engine idling to a maximum of 1 minute (tomgangsregulativ). Answer: 1 minute (according to local municipal environmental bylaws). Why not the others: 5 and 10 minutes exceed the statutory 1-minute ceiling, cold weather does not exempt idling, and idling regulations are strictly enforced.
