Question 3741

If a passenger car and an animal-drawn vehicle arrive at the same time at a narrowing in the road where the right-of-way is not marked, which of the two vehicles has the right-of-way?

  1. The one that has to back up a greater distance.
  2. The passenger car.
  3. The animal-drawn vehicle.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: The animal-drawn vehicle.

If they arrive at the same time, neither entered first, so the vehicle that has more difficulty maneuvering goes first. On the list of vehicle types, an animal-drawn vehicle ranks ahead of a passenger car, so the passenger car backs up. The backing distance only decides priority between vehicles of the same type or when one is not on the list.
