A car-derived van and a truck enter an unsigned very narrow section of the carriageway at the same time. Which vehicle is required to reverse?
Right of way
Explanation
In a situation where a **passenger car derivative** and a **truck** simultaneously enter a narrow section without signage, the vehicle that must reverse is the passenger car derivative. This is due to the rules of preference for driving in narrow areas.
- **Order of preference:** According to the established order, trucks have priority over passenger cars and passenger car derivatives. This means that, in the absence of other conditions that alter the preference, the truck has the right to pass first.
- **Maneuvers and difficulties:** In case of doubt about who should reverse, the maneuverability of the vehicles is considered. Vehicles with more difficulties in maneuvering, such as trucks, have preference.
Therefore, in this case, the passenger car derivative must reverse to allow the truck to pass.
