Passing target: 80% (16/20)
On a two-lane road, your right wheels drift off the pavement onto a soft, low shoulder. No car is close behind you. What should you do?
A straddles the pavement edge with its right wheels on the soft shoulder below the roadway. A small side-view detail shows the lower shoulder; the road behind A is empty.
Correct answer: Hold the wheel firmly, slow down gently, then steer back when safe
Why
The edge of the pavement can catch your tires, and a hard turn to climb it can throw the car across the center line. Ride on the shoulder with the wheels straight while you slow down. When your speed is low, check traffic both ways and steer back with a small, firm turn.
