Question 2159
Are you allowed to drive your passenger car on the shoulder of this road?
- Yes, if you are going to leave the road using a deceleration lane.
- No, under no circumstances.
- No, except when, because of an emergency, you are traveling at an abnormally low speed and are obstructing traffic.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: No, except when, because of an emergency, you are traveling at an abnormally low speed and are obstructing traffic.
A passenger car may not normally use the shoulder. If an emergency forces it to travel abnormally slowly and seriously obstruct traffic, it must use the right shoulder when it is usable and wide enough.
