Show answer

Correct answer

  • Ccuando crucen por un paso para bicicletas.when they cross at a cycle crossing.
Explanation

Cyclists have right of way over motor vehicles when they are riding on a properly signed cycle lane, cycle crossing or hard shoulder, as set out in Article 64 of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC). This means that in these specific situations cyclists' right to pass must be respected, which improves road safety and encourages the use of the bicycle as a means of transport. The other options, pedestrian areas and all junctions, do not give cyclists a general right of way.
