Passing target: 80% (28/35)
A driver behind you tailgates, honks and makes rude gestures. There is a safe place ahead where you can move into the right lane. What is the best response?
Blue A and silver B travel east in the left lane of a divided road. B follows close behind A, while the right lane is empty. The question card states that B honks and makes rude gestures.
Correct answer: Move over when it is safe, let the driver pass, and do not make eye contact or answer the gestures.
Why
Aggressive drivers may drive in an unsafe or threatening way, shout or make rude gestures. Your safest plan is to give them space: let them pass, keep a calm and steady speed, and do not respond. Trying to teach an aggressive driver a lesson turns one dangerous driver into two.
