Explanation
If you are driving slowly and there is a build-up of traffic behind you, you should pull over to the right side of the road when it is safe to do so. By pulling over and letting the traffic pass, you are allowing other vehicles to travel at the appropriate speed and maintain a smooth flow of traffic. This helps prevent congestion and reduces frustration for other drivers.
