What should you do if your right wheels go off the pavement while driving?

  1. Brake hard immediately

  2. Steer back onto the road quickly

  3. Take your foot off the gas pedal, steer straight, brake lightly, and turn back onto the road when it's clear

  4. Turn on your emergency flashers

The correct answer is: Brake hard immediately

The best action to take if your right wheels go off the pavement is to take your foot off the gas pedal, steer straight, brake lightly, and turn back onto the road when it's clear. This method allows you to maintain control of your vehicle and avoid sudden movements that could lead to loss of control or a potential accident. Braking hard immediately can cause your vehicle to skid, especially if the road surface is wet or slippery. Quick steering back onto the road can also lead to overcorrecting and losing control. While turning on your emergency flashers can be helpful in alerting other drivers to your situation, it does not directly address how to safely regain control of the vehicle and return to the road.
