Question 7350
A vehicle has to cross a shoulder being used by animals that do not have a livestock route; who has the right-of-way?
- The driver of the vehicle, since it is not a livestock route.
- The animals, but only if they form a herd.
- The animals.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: The animals.
The animals. When crossing a shoulder being used by animals that have no livestock route, you yield to them, whether it is one animal or a herd. The absence of a livestock route does not give you the right-of-way, because the rule applies to exactly that situation. In the image, the blue passenger car has its right turn signal on to enter a dirt road and must cross the shoulder the cows are using.
