Rules of the Road
You are pulling out of a private driveway onto a public road. What must you do?
Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: B. Yield to vehicles on the road and pedestrians on the sidewalk
Drivers entering a public road from private property have no right of way — vehicles on the road and pedestrians on sidewalks come first. This rule reflects a common crash scenario: a car pulling out without checking for bikes, cars, or pedestrians.
Why the other answers are wrong
- A.Continue onto the road at your own pace — you have priorityDrivers from private roads never have priority over road traffic; this reverses the actual rule.
- C.Signal and pull out — others will stopSignalling does not grant priority; you must wait for a genuine gap.
- D.Honk before entering the roadHonking does not override yield obligations; a quick alert does not excuse failure to yield.
