On a two-lane highway, the car ahead of you stops in your lane with its left signal on. It waits for oncoming traffic before it turns left. The highway has a wide, paved shoulder. What does Texas law allow you to do?
A follows B on a two-lane highway. B is stopped with its left signal on, waiting for approaching car C before turning left. A broad paved shoulder lies beyond the white edge line on the right. The question has no selected path or permission cue.
Correct answer: Pass on the paved shoulder, if you need to and you can do it safely.
Why
A pass on the right is limited because drivers do not expect a vehicle on their right side. A paved shoulder gives you a path around a car that waits to turn left, but use a careful speed and watch for people, bicycles and debris on the shoulder. Move back into the lane as soon as you are past the car.
