The address is on a busy street where every curb space is taken. Your passenger says the second lane is fine and they will only be a moment.
- Carry on to the first legal curb space and set them down there, even where it adds a short walk
- Stop in the second lane with your hazard lights on, since the stop is brief
- Stop in the second lane and keep the engine running so you can move if asked
- Stop across the entrance to the building so they step straight onto the sidewalk
The answer is A
A vehicle stopped in a live lane makes every following driver move around it, often into oncoming traffic, and it hides your passenger from the drivers who swerve. Hazard lights warn people about a problem, they do not make the problem lawful or safe. Going a little further costs seconds and removes the risk completely.
