Items to be carried in your car

<< < (3/3)

HiFi:
I think historically the KTEO checked for these items and the island's hi vis jacket and first aid kit would be passed from car to car. 
To my knowledge these items haven't been KTEO checked for many years now....
Or is that about to change?

Maik:
According to the European Commission, AA and RAC:


--- Quote ---Safety equipment for cars
Warning triangle
First-aid kit
Fire extinguisher

--- Quote ---While driving in Greece you are required by law to carry the following items. Hefty on-the-spot fines can be issued for failing to carry specific items:

    Vehicles registered in Greece or abroad must carry a warning triangle
    Fire extinguisher/first aid kit are compulsory on board private vehicle

First-aid kit
Warning triangle (not required for motorcycles or mopeds)

But things could have changed (without much notice).

Maik:
Nothing about it mentioned in the New rules for traffic violators (ekathimerini)

The last time we drove we had to have fire extinguisher, florescent jackets, first aid kid, warning triangle and spare bulb kit. The bulbs weren't for our car but we had to carry them, think it was only for France though!
