Question 5343

If, due to a breakdown, a passenger car is traveling at an abnormally low speed without interrupting the flow of traffic, where must it drive?

  1. On the right side of the roadway without entering the shoulder.
  2. It may not continue driving under any circumstances.
  3. It must drive on the shoulder.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: On the right side of the roadway without entering the shoulder.

A passenger car with a breakdown that forces it to travel at an abnormally low speed must move onto the shoulder only if that low speed seriously disrupts traffic. If it does not disrupt traffic, the car stays on the right side of the roadway without entering the shoulder. It may continue traveling as long as it can do so safely.
