The right wheels drop off the pavement. What should the driver 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. Opposing traffic lanes have two solid yellow lines.
Correct answer: Ease off the gas, grip the wheel, and return only after slowing.
Why
Reducing speed before a deliberate return avoids the sharp overcorrection that can cross opposing lanes.
