Question 6989
On a conventional road (carretera convencional) where there is no livestock route, animals must travel...
- along the right or the left side of the roadway; it makes no difference.
- as close as possible to the right edge of the road.
- along the left edge of the roadway, as a general rule.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: as close as possible to the right edge of the road.
Animals must travel on the right. Draft, pack, and riding animals, as well as individual livestock animals, use the right shoulder and, if they have to use the roadway, stay close to its right edge. Herds also travel close to the right edge. Traveling on the left is an exception for a single animal when that is safer, not the general rule. In the image, the cows are moving close to the right edge.
