You are driving along a narrow residential road, and ahead children are playing ball on the road. What is the most correct way to drive?
💡 Hint
When a driver sees a risk of a traffic accident, such as children playing on the road, the duty goes beyond just driving slowly (Article 49(1)2(a) of the Road Traffic Act). Remember that children may suddenly run out after a ball, and think about whether using the horn or headlights to make them move is safe.
Answer: ③
Explanation
Article 49(1)2(a) of the Road Traffic Act requires drivers to stop temporarily when they see a risk of a traffic accident involving children, such as children playing on the road. Children playing ball may suddenly dash after the ball, so slipping between them or using the horn or headlights to clear them is dangerous.
