Passing target: 80% (20/25)
You drive on a narrow two-lane road with no sidewalk and no shoulder. A person walks along the edge of the road, facing your traffic. As you pass, how much space does Nebraska law require you to give the person?
A approaches downward along a narrow two-way road. B walks upward beside the left edge, facing the approaching traffic, with no sidewalk or usable shoulder.
Correct answer: At least 3 feet, or more if that is needed to pass safely
Why
Nebraska law requires every driver to use due care with pedestrians, and that care includes a safe distance of no less than 3 feet on a roadway. A person on foot has no protection, so a small steering error or a sudden step can cause a serious injury. If oncoming traffic does not let you give 3 feet, slow down and pass only when you can.
