Question 4640
These cyclists are riding two abreast; is that correct?
- Yes.
- No, because they should ride on the roadway without encroaching on the shoulder.
- No, because they must always ride in single file.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes.
Yes. Bicycles may ride two abreast on the shoulder or, if there is no usable shoulder, using only the space they need on the roadway. They must ride single file between sunset and sunrise, on stretches with no visibility, when they obstruct traffic, or when fog, rain, or another cause greatly reduces visibility. In the image, they are riding two abreast in daylight on a clear, straight stretch, so they are riding correctly.
