Questions (2)

1. If you are passing a row of parked vehicles to your right and there is no oncoming traffic to your left, you should ride:
  1. In the left portion of your lane. ✓
  2. In the right portion of your lane.
  3. In the center of your lane.

Answer: A. In the left portion of your lane.

Ride in the left portion of your lane when passing parked vehicles on your right and no oncoming traffic is present on your left. The manual says your lane position should help you see and be seen, keep a space cushion, and avoid hazards. It also shows moving to the left portion of the lane to get away from a parked car. With parked vehicles lined up on your right, riding in the left portion gives you more separation from them and puts you where other drivers are more likely to notice you. Since there is no oncoming traffic on your left, using that side of your lane is the sensible choice.
2. When passing a row of parked cars, you should:
  1. Ride on the left side of the lane. ✓
  2. Ride wherever you are most comfortable.
  3. Ride in the right portion of the lane.

Answer: A. Ride on the left side of the lane.

When passing a row of parked cars, ride on the left side of your lane. The manual's section on passing parked cars says to stay toward the left of your lane. It gives that position as the way to avoid problems caused by doors. So the correct choice is the left side of the lane, not the right portion or a spot chosen only for comfort.
