Does the DGT require that a motorcycle sidecar have its own brake?
Active and passive safety
Explanation
**Motorcycles with sidecars** are three-wheeled vehicles that allow for an additional person to be carried in a side seat. Although they must meet certain engine displacement and speed characteristics similar to two-wheeled motorcycles, it is not mentioned that the sidecar must have its own braking system. This indicates that it is not mandatory for the sidecar to have an independent brake.
Furthermore, in the context of **brake lights**, it is specified that these are mandatory for cars, mopeds, trailers, and semi-trailers, but sidecars are not specifically mentioned. This reinforces the idea that there is no specific brake requirement for the sidecar.
Therefore, the correct answer is that it is **not** required for a motorcycle's sidecar to have its own brake.
