Risk of accident
Bear in mind that objects that are not touch-
ing the ground may appear further away
than they actually are (e.g. the bumper of a
vehicle parked behind, a trailer towbar or
the rear of a lorry). In this case, you should
not use the guide lines to measure the dis-
tance, since there would otherwise be a risk
of accident.

Therefore, do not approach an obstacle
closer than up to red guide line 4 (0.25 m
guide line), as you could otherwise already
