INLAND ONLY A power-driven vessel crossing a river on the Western Rivers has the right of way over which vessel?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) None of the above.
According to the Inland Navigation Rules, which apply to the Western Rivers, a power-driven vessel crossing a river does not have the right of way over vessels ascending or descending the river. The rules state that vessels proceeding downriver have the right of way over vessels proceeding upriver. Additionally, vessels crossing a river must yield the right of way to vessels that are either ascending or descending the river. Therefore, none of the answer choices accurately describe the right-of-way rules for a power-driven vessel crossing a river on the Western Rivers.
