• A. True
• B. Cannot Determine
• C. Not Applicable
• D. False

Answer: (D)

When there is no center line, you should position your vehicle toward the right edge of your lane. This keeps you farther from oncoming traffic and gives you more room to react to hazards, such as a vehicle drifting into your lane or an obstacle on the roadway. Driving in the center of the road removes that margin and increases the risk of a head-on encounter if the other driver veers, or if visibility is limited by curves or hills. So, staying near the right edge of your lane is the safer choice, not driving in the center.
