Question 2301
If you are driving on a road outside a built-up area and encounter a line of schoolchildren, what should you do?
- Honk the horn so they do not enter the roadway.
- Slow down and yield to them, since they have the right-of-way.
- Nothing, because they do not have the right-of-way.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Slow down and yield to them, since they have the right-of-way.
Groups of schoolchildren walking in line also have the right-of-way on roads outside built-up areas. When you encounter them, you must slow down and yield to them.
