Question 3810
On a section of road where passing is prohibited, passing the cyclist requires occupying the lane for oncoming traffic. Is the vehicle allowed to pass the cyclist in this case?
- No.
- Only on urban roads and road sections through built-up areas (travesías).
- Yes.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes.
Yes. On a section where passing is prohibited, like the one in the image with a solid line, you may pass a cyclist even if you enter the oncoming lane. The cyclist must be traveling slowly enough for you to pass safely, and you must first check that no one is coming toward you. This exception applies on any road, not just urban roads and road sections through built-up areas (travesías).
