On a steep descent, when driving on a narrow roadway that doesn’t allow 2 vehicles to pass at the same time:
- Both vehicles should pull into the “hard shoulders”.
- Right of way should be given to commercial vehicles weighing more than 4 tons.
- The vehicle driving uphill should stop.
- Correct answer: The vehicle driving downhill should give way and stop if necessary.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: The vehicle driving downhill should give way and stop if necessary.
On a narrow, steep section of road that allows only one vehicle to pass, the vehicle driving downhill stops and lets the vehicle driving uphill pass. A vehicle going uphill has difficulty starting to move again after stopping, so it continues, and the vehicle driving downhill is the one that stops.
