When you're navigating the congested roads and highways of British Columbia, understanding traffic laws is crucial, not just for passing the ICBC knowledge test, but for ensuring your safety and the safety of others. One common scenario many drivers encounter is being stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic. Even in these situations where your vehicle is stationary, you remain legally in control of the car.
