Passing target: 75% (30/40)
At 50 mph, your right wheels drop off the edge of the pavement onto a lower gravel shoulder. What should you do?
A’s right wheels have dropped onto a lower gravel shoulder while its left wheels remain on the pavement. A side-view detail shows the pavement drop, and the card states that A was traveling at 50 mph.
Correct answer: Ease off the gas, slow down gradually, and steer back when it is safe.
Why
A raised pavement edge can grab the tires if you turn back sharply at high speed. Hold the wheel firmly, stay straight on the shoulder, and let the vehicle slow. When your speed is low and traffic is clear, steer back onto the pavement with a small, controlled movement.
