AMDifficulty 1/5

A moped travels outside a built-up area on the carriageway, although there is a usable, sufficiently wide shoulder on its right and no area specially provided for it. It is not overtaking or making another manoeuvre. Is this correct?

Correct answer

No, it must use that right shoulder.

No. It must use the right shoulder when usable and sufficient and there is no area specially provided for it. If the shoulder were unsuitable, it would use the essential part of the carriageway. This describes ordinary travel, not overtaking or an unusable shoulder.
