Question 4752

On this acceleration lane, is the passenger car allowed to go faster to get ahead of the truck?

  1. Yes, because in this case it is not considered passing.
  2. Yes, because the passenger car has the right-of-way.
  3. No, because passing on the right is not allowed.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, because in this case it is not considered passing.

Yes. Traveling faster in the acceleration lane than the truck in the regular lane does not count as passing, so it is not passing on the right. The passenger car does not have the right-of-way and must merge ahead without forcing the truck to brake.
