Your right wheels drop from the pavement onto the shoulder. The vehicle remains controllable. What should you do?
Blue car A faces east beside the right edge of a two-way paved road. Its two right-side wheels are on a brown dirt shoulder, while its left-side wheels remain on pavement. A stays parallel to the road. No recovery path appears in this question image.
Correct answer: Hold steady, slow down, then ease back onto the pavement.
Why
Keep a firm, steady grip and ease off the accelerator. Slow while maintaining control, check traffic, and return to the pavement with a small, controlled steering movement when it is safe. Avoid a sharp high-speed return or sudden hard braking.
