Q

BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND A vessel using a traffic separation scheme shall NOT take which action?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 10 – Traffic Separation Schemes (COLREGS/Navigation Rules) • Difference between traffic lanes and the separation zone/line • What activities are allowed or restricted for fishing vessels in or near a TSS

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Which option describes something that is clearly prohibited in Rule 10, rather than just discouraged or restricted? • Consider how a vessel should normally use a traffic lane. Which choice goes directly against the basic purpose of a TSS? • Think about whether vessels are ever allowed to be in or cross lanes or the separation zone under controlled conditions. Which option suggests something that would defeat the safety design of the scheme?

✅ Before You Answer

• Review the exact wording of Rule 10 for: (1) use of traffic lanes, (2) crossing traffic lanes, and (3) use of the separation zone. • Check how Rule 10 treats fishing vessels in a TSS—are they completely banned from specific areas or just given special cautions? • Identify which choice describes an action that is inherently contrary to the designated direction and purpose of traffic flow in a TSS.
