S170(5) does not apply to the driver of which vehicle?

• A. Motorcycle
• B. Car
• C. Invalid carriage
• D. Bicycle

Answer: (C)

The key idea here is that section 170 sets a duty to identify the driver, but there’s a specific exemption tied to a particular type of vehicle. Section 170(5) makes clear that the duty does not apply to the driver of an invalid carriage. That means, when the vehicle involved is an invalid carriage, the driver isn’t subject to the same requirement to disclose who was driving under this provision.

For motorcycles, cars, and even bicycles, the usual provision allows the police to seek the identity of the driver after certain offences, so those drivers fall under the section’s effects. But for an invalid carriage, that obligation under section 170 does not apply, which is why that option is the correct answer.
