What risk do riders of two-wheelers face while passing between two rows of cars that stand before an intersection?
- There is no risk, as there is always enough space for two-wheelers to pass comfortably and safely.
- The risk is that at the beginning of the row, next to the intersection, there is no more space left because there are many two-wheelers standing there.
- Correct answer: They might hit pedestrians who are not using a regulated pedestrian crossing.
- They might be hit by cigarette butts thrown by vehicle drivers.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: They might hit pedestrians who are not using a regulated pedestrian crossing.
When cars stand in rows before an intersection, pedestrians often cross between them away from a regulated crossing, assuming traffic is stopped. The cars hide them, so a rider squeezing through may see them only at the last moment, with no time to brake. Ride slowly and expect people stepping out between vehicles. Assuming there is always safe room to pass is wrong.
