What should you do when your driving lane is blocked by the double-parked silver vehicle (marked with a circle)?
- Correct answer: Slow down, allow the vehicle coming from the opposite direction to pass undisturbed, and then overtake the parked vehicle.
- Signal with your headlight to the vehicle coming from the opposite direction and swerve quickly to the opposite lane, before it arrives
- Stop behind the silver vehicle and wait for a policeman or an inspector.
- Overtake the silver vehicle through the gap between it and the vehicle coming from the opposite direction.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: Slow down, allow the vehicle coming from the opposite direction to pass undisturbed, and then overtake the parked vehicle.
When you must move into the opposite lane to get around an obstacle in your lane, oncoming traffic has priority. Slow down, let the oncoming vehicle pass, and overtake the double-parked car only when the opposite lane is clear. Flashing your headlights gives you no right of way, and squeezing through the narrow gap is dangerous. There is no need to wait for a police officer or an inspector.
