Cevap

It is a serious moving violation because passing within 100 feet of an intersection is illegal due to severely obstructed sight lines and crossing traffic hazards.
Passing within 100 feet of an intersection is a serious moving violation because it severely impairs visibility and increases collision risks with vehicles turning into or out of side streets.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the location and distance parameters of the maneuver
The driver initiated and completed a pass within 50 feet of an intersection on a two-lane road.
Passing maneuver restrictions apply near critical road features like intersections, bridges, and railroad crossings.

Apply the statutory rule for passing near intersections
Passing within 100 feet of an intersection is classified as a serious moving violation.
Obstruction of visibility and unexpected movements from turning or entering traffic significantly elevate the danger of head-on or broadside collisions.
