Question 641

Are vehicles for people with reduced mobility required to travel on the shoulder?

  1. Yes, if there is no road or part of the road specifically designated for them.
  2. No, it depends on officers' instructions and the type of road.
  3. No, they may travel on the shoulder whenever they consider it appropriate.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, if there is no road or part of the road specifically designated for them.

When there is no road or part of a road specifically designated for them, these vehicles must use the right shoulder if it is usable and wide enough. Otherwise, they must occupy only as much of the roadway as necessary.
