Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: Slow down and divert their vehicle to the roadway’s edge, , to avoid collision.
On a narrow, flat road, neither driver has the right of way, and the size of the vehicle does not determine who passes first. Both drivers must therefore slow down and divert their vehicles to the roadway's edge, to make room and avoid a collision. Increasing speed in a narrow section increases the danger.
