Question 1710 in the bank

Is it permitted to drive with a tractor on the sidewalk in order to pass a road obstruction?

  1. Yes, it is permitted to drive on the sidewalk very carefully and in first gear.
  2. Yes, it is permitted to drive on the sidewalk if the roadway is in a bad condition.
  3. Correct answer: No, it is prohibited to drive on the sidewalk in order to pass an obstruction.
  4. Yes, it is permitted to bypass the obstacle through the sidewalk.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: No, it is prohibited to drive on the sidewalk in order to pass an obstruction.

The sidewalk is intended mainly for pedestrians, so it is prohibited to drive a tractor on it in order to pass an obstruction in the road. Driving carefully, driving in first gear, or a roadway in bad condition do not make it permitted. When there is an obstruction, pass it within the roadway when it is safe, or stop and wait until the way is clear.
