You approach a person riding a horse near the right side of the roadway ahead. What is the safest way to pass?
Blue A is behind a horse and rider near the right side of the roadway. Silver B occupies the opposing lane; the card describes these positions.
Correct answer: Slow down and give the horse plenty of room.
Why
Slow and pass a horse and rider cautiously with plenty of room when it is safe to do so. Avoid unnecessary horn use, sudden engine noise, or abrupt movement. Be ready for the animal to react unexpectedly and be prepared to stop.
