Question 2913

Is the passenger car passing the bicycle correctly?

  1. No, because crossing the solid line to pass is prohibited.
  2. No, because leaving too much clearance forces it to enter the oncoming lane.
  3. Yes, because it leaves adequate clearance and uses the adjacent lane.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, because it leaves adequate clearance and uses the adjacent lane.

To pass a bicycle, you must move into the adjacent or oncoming lane and leave at least 1.5 meters of clearance. The maneuver may be performed even on a stretch where passing is prohibited if you have checked that it is safe.
