Question 6944

On this freeway, when may you drive on the shoulder?

  1. Never.
  2. When there is heavy traffic.
  3. When, because of an emergency or a breakdown, you are traveling at an abnormally low speed.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: When, because of an emergency or a breakdown, you are traveling at an abnormally low speed.

A passenger car may use the shoulder of a freeway when a breakdown or another emergency forces it to travel at an abnormally low speed that seriously disrupts traffic. It must leave at the first exit. Heavy traffic is not an emergency.
