Question 410 Rules of the Road

The correct answer is B) A vessel pushing a barge. According to the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS), a vessel pushing a barge must keep out of the way of all other vessels listed, including those engaged in fishing (A), restricted in their ability to maneuver (C), and constrained by their draft (D). This is because a vessel pushing a barge is considered a "power-driven vessel" under the COLREGS, and as such, it has a duty to keep out of the way of the other vessel types, which may have limitations in their ability to maneuver or avoid a collision.
