Difficulty: hard

## Question
Regarding driving related to blind spots and visibility, which of the following is correct?

## Options
A. When passing through a corner or curve, be careful because the vehicle's inner wheel difference may cause you to draw in pedestrians or bicycles on the inside.
B. The area near the top of an uphill slope has poor visibility so you must slow down to a stop-ready speed (jokō), but you may overtake if the road is clear.
C. When passing near a stopped vehicle, there is no concern that a door will suddenly open because you can see inside the vehicle from the driver's seat.
D. Characteristics such as blind spots and inner wheel differences need only be known by drivers; pedestrians and bicycle riders do not need to know them.

## Correct answer
A. When passing through a corner or curve, be careful because the vehicle's inner wheel difference may cause you to draw in pedestrians or bicycles on the inside.

## Explanation
The Rules of the Road state that at corners and curves, the inner wheel difference may cause you to draw in pedestrians or bicycles on the inside. Overtaking is prohibited near hilltops, attention is required for sudden door opening at stopped vehicles, and pedestrians and bicycle riders should also be familiar with characteristics such as blind spots.
