Question 6947

On sections with sufficient visibility and without creating congestion, may cyclists ride two abreast, keeping to the right?

  1. Yes.
  2. No, they must always ride on the shoulder.
  3. No, they must always ride single file.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes.

Yes. Bicycles may ride two abreast on the shoulder and, if there is no usable shoulder, on the roadway, taking up only as much space as necessary and keeping close to the right, like those in the picture. They switch to single file only on sections with no visibility, when they impede traffic, between sunset and sunrise, or when visibility drops sharply.
