minus-squareMediumGray@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·edit-23 months agoI mean, you should be slowing down at least a bit when passing someone pulled over on the side of the road anyways, no? Just like going through a construction zone. It really depends on how much braking we’re talking about.
