Sharing the RoadStandalone practice
You are in the right lane of a four-lane highway with two lanes in each direction. A stopped emergency vehicle has warning lights on along the right shoulder. The lane to your left is clear. What should you do?
A approaches a stopped emergency vehicle B on the right shoulder. A clear same-direction lane lies to A's left.
Correct answer: Move safely into the lane farther from the emergency vehicle and use a cautious speed.
Why
Approach with caution and move to the lane away from the stopped emergency vehicle when a safe lane change is available. If a lane change cannot be made safely, slow down and be prepared to stop. Continue watching for responders and people near the roadway.
