Which statement about pushing a two-wheeled vehicle is correct?

• A. A person pushing a two-wheeled vehicle with its engine turned off may walk on a pedestrian walkway.
• B. A person pushing a two-wheeled vehicle with its engine turned off must ride on the roadway.
• C. Two-wheeled vehicles must always stay on the sidewalks.
• D. A person pushing a two-wheeled vehicle with its engine turned off may not walk on a pedestrian walkway.

Answer: (A)

When the engine is off, you’re treated as a pedestrian. Pushing a two-wheeled vehicle while it’s turned off is allowed on a pedestrian walkway because you’re not driving the vehicle; you’re simply moving alongside it as a pedestrian. The sidewalk is designed for people on foot, and pushing the vehicle there is safer and respects the flow of traffic. Riding on the roadway isn’t required or appropriate here since the engine is off and you’re not operating the vehicle as a rider. Saying you must stay on sidewalks all the time isn’t accurate either, and saying you may not walk on a pedestrian walkway contradicts the pedestrian rule when the vehicle is off.
