Are you posing a threat to safety on the road in this situation?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the video you are driving along a two-way housing estate street where vehicles are parked at the right edge, and you are driving the car on the left side of the broken line that separates the directions of traffic, while an off-road vehicle is coming from the opposite direction. By driving on the left side of the roadway straight towards the oncoming vehicle, you are posing a threat to safety. The answer is: yes.
The Road Traffic Act requires traffic to keep to the right and vehicles to drive as close as possible to the right edge of the roadway, and it prohibits actions that could endanger road safety. Passing parked cars on the left side is allowed only when it does not obstruct oncoming traffic. You return to your half of the roadway, and next to the parked cars you slow down and wait for a gap in the oncoming traffic.
