The correct answer is: Windscreen, headlights, seatbelts

The requirement to legally ensure that your vehicle's windscreen, headlights, and seatbelts are in good condition stems from their critical roles in both vehicle safety and roadworthiness. A clear windscreen is essential for visibility and allows drivers to see the road and any potential hazards clearly. If the windscreen is damaged or dirty, it can impair the driver's ability to drive safely, which increases the risk of accidents. Headlights are vital for safe driving at night or in poor visibility conditions. They illuminate the road ahead and ensure that the vehicle is visible to other road users. Malfunctioning headlights can create dangerous driving situations, both for the driver of the vehicle and for other people on the road. Seatbelts play a critical role in passenger safety. They are designed to securely restrain occupants in the event of a collision, significantly reducing the risk of injury or death. The law requires that all seatbelts in a vehicle should be functional and in good condition to protect the occupants effectively. By ensuring these components are in proper working order, drivers contribute to overall road safety and compliance with legal requirements.
