Question 4037

When is passing prohibited in tunnels?

  1. When there is only one lane for each direction of travel.
  2. When there is more than one lane for each direction of travel.
  3. When the tunnel is not illuminated.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: When there is only one lane for each direction of travel.

To know whether you may pass in a tunnel, count the lanes in your direction. With one lane, as in the image, where a van is approaching from the opposite direction, passing is prohibited. With two or more, you may pass without entering lanes for the opposite direction. The lighting makes no difference.
