Question 4545
At a narrowing with no right-of-way signs, a passenger car towing a trailer and a bus meet, and it is not known which one entered first. Which vehicle has the right-of-way?
- The one that has to back up the greater distance.
- The bus.
- The passenger car towing the trailer.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: The passenger car towing the trailer.
If it is unclear who entered first, the vehicle that ranks higher on the list of vehicle types goes first. A passenger car towing a trailer ranks ahead of a bus whether the trailer has a maximum authorized mass of up to 750 kg or more, so the bus backs up. The backing distance does not matter here.
