Which is NOT a correct way to drive through a road construction zone or an area at risk of falling rocks?
💡 Hint
In a construction zone, workers may be hidden behind equipment or structures, and lanes may suddenly narrow. When lanes merge you must signal your lane change (Article 38(1) of the Road Traffic Act), and consider whether it is safe to set your speed only by the dangers you can see.
Answer: ②
Explanation
In a construction zone, workers may be hidden behind equipment or structures, the surface may be uneven and lanes may narrow suddenly, so slow down even if no workers are visible. Where lanes are reduced, signal the lane change as required by Article 38(1) of the Road Traffic Act and merge in turn. In falling-rock areas, slow down, look up the slope and do not linger.
