Which TWO of the following are cases in which a driver may use the center or the left side of the road? Select TWO
Motor vehicles and horses must, as a rule, use the right side of the road; the center or left side is allowed only in the exceptions listed in Article 13(4) of the Road Traffic Act. The overtaking exception applies only on roads whose right side is LESS than 6 meters wide and only when oncoming traffic is not obstructed, so check both the number and the condition.
Answer: ①, ③
Explanation
Article 13(4) of the Road Traffic Act allows use of the center or left side only in limited cases, such as a one-way road or when construction or damage makes the right side unusable. Crossing to the left to overtake is allowed only where the right side of the road is less than 6 meters wide, so a road 6 meters or wider does not qualify. Even when overtaking, the left side may not be used if doing so could obstruct oncoming traffic.
