Under the Road Traffic Act, which statement about "driving" is correct?
Driving means using motor vehicles and horses or a tram on a road according to their original method of use, including operating them or using an autonomous driving system (Article 2, subparagraph 26 of the Road Traffic Act). However, the 'on a road' principle has exceptions for some provisions, so watch out for absolute expressions like 'in any case'.
Answer: ③
Explanation
Under Article 2, item 26 of the Road Traffic Act, driving means using a vehicle, animal-drawn vehicle or tram on a road according to its original method of use, including steering it or using an automated driving system. However, for some provisions such as Article 44 (ban on driving while intoxicated), places other than roads are also included. So the options saying off-road movement is never driving, or excluding automated driving and trams, are wrong.
