When approaching a drawbridge, what must a driver do?

  1. They must exercise extreme caution and reduce speed when approaching.
  2. Always stop to check that there is no danger and then proceed without delay.
  3. The same as at an underpass.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: They must exercise extreme caution and reduce speed when approaching.

A drawbridge is a movable bridge. As you approach, you must be extra cautious and drive below the speed limit. You do not always have to stop. You stop when the bridge is closed, its barrier is moving, or a sign or signal tells you to.
