Question 5890

What precaution can you take to avoid the risk of hitting cyclists?

  1. Not use the horn near them.
  2. Start a pass when a group of cyclists is approaching in the opposite direction.
  3. Use light signals to warn them of your intention to pass.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Not use the horn near them.

Honking at close range can startle a cyclist and make them lose their balance, so if you need to warn them, do it from a distance. Do not start passing when cyclists are approaching from the opposite direction either, because you could endanger them.
