On a road with separate sidewalk and roadway, which statement about how vehicles must travel is correct?
On a road divided into sidewalk and roadway, vehicles must use the roadway and keep to the right of the centerline as a rule, and may cross the sidewalk only to enter or leave a place off the road (Article 13 of the Road Traffic Act). Distinguish whether what you must do just before crossing the sidewalk is to drive slowly or to make a temporary stop.
Answer: ③
Explanation
Article 13(1) of the Road Traffic Act requires vehicles to use the roadway where it is separated from the sidewalk, and allows crossing the sidewalk only to enter or leave places off the road. Under Article 13(2), you must make a temporary stop just before crossing, look left and right, and not obstruct pedestrians, so using the horn to make them step aside is wrong. Under Article 13(3), vehicles travel on the right side of the centerline.
