Parking, Reversing & Roadside StopsStandalone practice
Before pulling from a parallel parking space beside the right-hand curb into traffic, what must you do?
A is parked in the curbside space while B occupies the adjacent travel lane farther ahead.
Correct answer: Check mirrors and over your shoulder, signal, and yield to traffic.
Why
The driver entering from a parking space lacks the right-of-way and must complete a direct blind-area check. Look directly for a vehicle or cyclist beside you, because it may be outside the mirror view. Signal your intention and wait; drivers already on the roadway do not have to create a gap for you.
