8. You may pass on the right of another vehicle when:
A. When traveling on a multi-lane highway carrying two or more lanes of traffic in the same direction
B. The other vehicle is making or about to make a left turn, when a lane is provided to pass on the right
C. Both answers are correct
Woah, what happened there d? It looks like either a rollover or a big ass animal... Glad you were OK.
I scored a 90%, but I have a "local rules" issue that I've got to take with one of the questions. The question reguarding passing on the right. Atleast here in CT, it's illegal to do on a multilane road traveling in the same direction. I know from personal experience of seeing the flashing red lights behind me after doing so on the Wilbur-Cross Parkway outside of meriden a few years back
AFAIK, it's legal to pass on the right in CT as long as there's more than 3 lanes (not counting slow lanes on uphills) traveling in the same direction. At least, that's what I was told in driver's ed. 15 years ago.

I thought that passing on the right on multi-lane highways was a no-no in NJ as well...it's OK to pass on the right in MA, though. Go figure.I actually asked one of my patients whose a state trooper about this AFTER I got my ticket, and he told me that in CT, the state law is that unless you're being specifically instructed to by an officer and/or signalman/woman that passing on the right in CT is illegal. Most of the time though it has to be a "blatant" pass where you quickly swerve right, pass the car and then quickly swerve left back around the slower car for them to issue you a ticket for it though, or sometimes an officer may tack it on to your ticket if they already have you for another infraction.
I only wish I had read up and was aware of that "local CT rule" before that infraction

http://www.cga.ct.gov/2007/pub/Chap248.htm#Sec14-233.htmhttp://www.cga.ct.gov said:Sec. 14-233. Passing on right. The driver of a vehicle may overtake and pass upon the right of another vehicle only when conditions permit such movement in safety and under the following conditions: (1) When the vehicle overtaken is making or has signified the intention to make a left turn; (2) when lines of vehicles traveling in the same direction in adjoining traffic lanes have come to a stop or have reduced their speed; (3) upon a one-way street free from obstructions and of sufficient width for two or more lines of moving vehicles; (4) upon a limited access highway or parkway free from obstructions with three or more lanes provided for traffic in one direction. Such movement shall not be made by driving off the pavement or main-traveled portion of the highway except where lane designations, signs, signals or markings provide for such movement. Violation of any provision of this section shall be an infraction.
Just wondering...how long do your insurance rates go up if you have a ticket or accident? I had a few at-fault accidents (last one about 8 years ago) and, in Mass., you got hit with surcharges for 6 years...:-?80 % hey its NYS
No accidents , no speeding tix in over 20 yrs and frankly imo several questions were deceptively nebulous as others have pointed out.
One can scope tests but the proof is YOUR DRIVING Record that's the real Ka-Ching factor
I just got this from the CT General Statutes:
