Turns, Lanes, Passing & MergingStandalone practice
On a two-lane road, the driver behind you signals and starts to pass you on the left. What does North Dakota law require you to do?
Car B has moved into the opposing lane to pass A on a two-lane road with a broken yellow center line. Both cars face right; A is still in its own lane.
Correct answer: Keep to the right and do not speed up until the other vehicle has fully passed.
Why
A passing driver is exposed to oncoming traffic, so the pass must end as quickly as possible. If you speed up, you trap that driver in the wrong lane. If the pass goes wrong, easing off the gas slightly can help the other driver get back in front of you.
