Which TWO are cases in which a vehicle may be driven on the shoulder of an expressway or automobile road? Select TWO
The shoulder of an expressway may not be used except in unavoidable situations such as a breakdown, and the exceptions are limited to vehicles and situations set by law (Article 60(1) of the Road Traffic Act). Note that circumstances the driver judges on their own, such as a backed-up exit or many passengers, are not exceptions.
Answer: ①, ③
Explanation
Article 60(1) of the Road Traffic Act prohibits using the shoulder unless there is an unavoidable reason such as a breakdown, and also allows it when driving an emergency vehicle or a vehicle doing maintenance or repair work on the expressway, and in congestion when following a signal or the direction of a police officer, etc. So driving a maintenance vehicle and moving a broken-down car onto the shoulder are both permitted. Choosing to use the shoulder because the exit is backed up or because there are many passengers is a shoulder-driving violation.
