What should you do if another vehicle is approaching from the opposite direction in a shared lane?

Yielding to the oncoming vehicle is the appropriate action because it prioritizes safety and adherence to traffic rules. In shared lanes—often found in narrow streets or during road construction—there may not be enough space for two vehicles to pass each other safely. By yielding, you allow the oncoming vehicle to proceed, minimizing the risk of collision and ensuring a smoother flow of traffic. This action demonstrates respect for the rights of other drivers and helps prevent accidents.

The other options suggest taking actions that could lead to dangerous situations. Accelerating to pass quickly could result in an unsafe maneuver if the other vehicle is too close. Changing lanes immediately might not always be possible or safe, especially if the lane is not clear. Ignoring the oncoming vehicle entirely disregards the rules of the road and could lead to a serious accident.
