Question 4487

When approaching a movable bridge, what must you do?

  1. Reducing speed, but only if the bridge is moving.
  2. Exercising extreme caution and always stopping before crossing.
  3. Reducing speed below the maximum permitted speed.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Reducing speed below the maximum permitted speed.

As you approach a movable bridge, you must be extra cautious and slow down below the speed limit, even if the bridge is not moving. You do not always have to stop. You stop when the crossing is closed, as in the picture, where the bridge is raised to let a motorboat through.
