Question 5106

When there is no pedestrian area or it is not passable, pedestrians..

  1. may travel on the shoulder.
  2. must travel on the roadway.
  3. are not allowed to travel on roads.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: may travel on the shoulder.

If there is no pedestrian area or it cannot be used, pedestrians may walk on the shoulder. If there is no usable shoulder either, they may walk on the roadway, as far from cars as possible. They use the roadway when there is no shoulder they can use. They may walk along roads, except freeways (autopistas) and high-capacity divided highways (autovías).
