Where should you move your vehicle if you break down while driving on the highway?

  1. Park in the left lane until assistance arrives.

  2. Park in the center lane and turn on hazard lights.

  3. Park on the paved shoulder and call for help.

  4. Move it completely off the pavement.

The correct answer is: Move it completely off the pavement.

Moving your vehicle completely off the pavement is the safest option if you break down while driving on the highway. This ensures that your vehicle is out of the lane of traffic, reducing the risk of collision with passing vehicles. Being off the roadway provides a safer environment for both yourself and any emergency personnel who may respond to your situation. It also helps to avoid causing potential hazards for other drivers on the highway. Parking on the paved shoulder, as mentioned in another choice, may still pose a risk if the vehicle is too close to traffic or if the shoulder is not wide enough. Ensuring that your vehicle is well clear of the roadway maximizes safety.
