C1Difficulty 3/5

At a narrow passage without a steep gradient or priority signs, your rigid lorry and a lorry-trailer combination arrive together. If one must reverse to allow passage, which one must do so?

Correct answer

The truck I am driving.

The rigid lorry. In this situation, the vehicle combination takes precedence over the lorry under Articles 60 and 62. A vehicle that had entered first would have priority; here they arrive together. Steep gradients have a different rule. Not all special vehicles rank first: those exceeding mass or dimension limits are distinguished from those within them. Reverse only after checking that it is safe.
