Question: A driver behind you wants to pass. You should:
Answer options:
- Speed up ✅ Stay to the right and maintain or reduce your speed
- Block them
- Brake hard
Correct answer: Stay to the right and maintain or reduce your speed
Explanation: When another driver attempts to pass, Alberta’s Traffic Safety Act requires you to assist them by staying to the right of your lane and maintaining or slightly reducing your speed. This cooperative behavior ensures the passing vehicle can complete the maneuver quickly and safely. Speeding up or blocking the driver is dangerous and illegal, as it traps them in a vulnerable position, while braking hard creates a sudden hazard that could cause a rear-end collision. On the Alberta Class 7 exam, always prioritize sharing the road and defensive driving principles, choosing answers that facilitate smooth, predictable traffic flow rather than defensive or aggressive reactions.
