Which 2 statements about the duty to yield the way are correct? Select TWO
💡 Hint
The duty to yield (Article 20 of the Road Traffic Act) covers slower vehicles yielding and vehicles meeting head-on on a narrow road, and emergency vehicles are treated separately. Watch out for criteria the law does not use, such as vehicle size, and absolute words like "always" or "must".
Answer: ②, ③
Explanation
Road Traffic Act Article 20 excludes emergency vehicles from the duty to yield. When vehicles meet on a narrow road, which one yields depends on whether the road is sloped and whether a vehicle carries load or passengers, and the yielding vehicle pulls over to the right edge (Article 20(2)). Vehicle size is not the criterion, and on roads with traffic division the slower vehicle's duty to yield (paragraph 1) does not apply.
