Explanation:

Question 8

In most traffic laws, passing is prohibited on hills, curves, and at intersections for safety. Road - sections marked with a broken line usually allow passing (as broken lines often indicate that passing is permitted when safe). So the location where you can pass is the one with the broken line, meaning you should not pass in the other three locations (hills, curves, intersections) except the broken - line section.

When approaching a tunnel, railroad crossing, or bridge (within 100 feet), passing another vehicle is extremely dangerous due to reduced visibility, potential for sudden traffic changes, and safety regulations. So you should never attempt to pass another vehicle in these situations. Option A is wrong as you can't pass at will. Option B is wrong as even if it looks clear, passing is not allowed. Option D is wrong as option C is correct.

When parking on a public road, you should move as far off the road as possible to avoid obstructing traffic, pull parallel to the road (for proper parking), and pull up your parking (emergency) brake to secure the vehicle. So all of these actions are correct.

Answer:

C. On road - sections marked with a broken line
