Travelling down a residential street with parked cars can be difficult to navigate.

If you’re on the side of the street with the parked cars and another vehicle is approaching, do you know what to do?

It may surprise you to learn that you are not required by law to pull over and let the oncoming traffic pass. The vehicles travelling in opposite directions should share the remaining roadway.

If safe, both drivers should move over and make room to pass safely.

But, there may be times when there isn’t enough room for both cars to pass. If that’s the case, it’s a courtesy to the other driver to pull over and wait between the parked cars while oncoming traffic passes.
