Passing target: 80% (20/25)
You are parked at the curb on a busy street and want to pull out into traffic. A car is coming in the lane you will enter and would have to brake if you pulled out now. What should you do?
A is parked parallel to and close beside the right curb. B approaches from behind in the adjacent travel lane.
Correct answer: Signal, check your mirror and blind spot, and wait until the car has passed.
Why
A car that pulls away from the curb is a common cause of crashes, because drivers in the lane do not expect it. Before you move, check your mirrors and look over your shoulder, since a bicyclist or a car can be in your blind spot. Wait for a gap large enough that no one has to brake for you, then pull out smoothly. Watch for pedestrians who may step out between parked cars.
