Question 5631
When approaching an area with reduced visibility, what precautions should be taken?
- Reduce your speed and, if necessary, stop the vehicle.
- None if no vehicles are coming from the opposite direction.
- Maintain your speed and pay attention to obeying vertical signs.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Reduce your speed and, if necessary, stop the vehicle.
Where you cannot see what is ahead, as on the curve in the image, you slow down so you can stop for whatever appears. There may be a broken-down vehicle, a cyclist, or an animal beyond it, and you stop if necessary. The absence of oncoming traffic does not tell you what is around the curve.
